  • Teamwork: Experience working collaboratively with teachers and school staff to ensure consistency in behaviour management.
  • Safeguarding Knowledge: A good understanding of safeguarding and child protection procedures.
  • Enhanced DBS: A current Enhanced DBS check (or willingness to apply for one).
