- Contribute to SEND documentation including assess‑plan‑do‑review, provision mapping, reporting, and EHCP reviews where appropriate
- Work in close partnership with parents/carers, promoting positive relationships and consistent approaches between home and school

- Can plan and deliver specialist, structured and engaging learning, with high expectations and a nurturing approach

We Offer:
