An exciting opportunity has arisen for us to appoint a driven and enthusiastic 1-1 support assistant, with a passion for learning and a desire to maximise the potential of a pupil joining our school. Working within our EYFS Department, the appointee will be responsible, under the direction of the class teacher, for supporting the pupil throughout the day on their academic, and social and emotional journey. This role will suit a compassionate individual who is willing to put the needs of the pupil first, taking an active role in their day-to-day life, both inside and outside the classroom. An interest or experience in EYFS and/or SEND, particularly with children struggling with social communication, social imagination and social integrity, would be an advantage but is not essential.
We are a warm and family-oriented community, with a strong emphasis upon the holistic needs of our children, as well as strong academics. We pride ourselves on knowing our children well and creating a personalised learning journey, for each and every one of them. We can offer the right candidate a happy and supportive working environment.
