This school is a special school for up to 130 students aged 14-19 with severe learning difficulties (SLD) and profound and multiple learning difficulties (PMLD). Some students also have neurological impairments, complex physical and complex medical needs. Over half the students have autism, with some having very complex needs. The school also caters for students with moderate learning difficulties who may need additional social and emotional support before transferring to local colleges at 19.

The post will involve:
- Working under the guidance of the class teacher
- Being a flexible and organised team player
- Being able to use your own initiative
- Working with individuals and groups of students
- Attending to the personal care needs of students
