  • Behaviour Management: Assist in managing student behaviour in line with the school’s policies, promoting a positive and safe learning environment.

  • Strong Communication Skills: Able to communicate effectively with students, staff, parents, and external agencies.
  • Team Player: Ability to work collaboratively within a multi-disciplinary team to deliver personalised learning support.
  • Driving Licence: A full, clean UK driving licence is required as the role involves some off-site community outreach work.
