- Build positive relationships that help pupils feel safe, understood and ready to learn.
- Track progress, celebrate milestones and help pupils recognise their own achievements.
- Work collaboratively with therapists, families and colleagues to provide consistent, holistic support.
- Contribute to an ambitious Maths curriculum and the wider development of the school.
- Help prepare young people with the academic, social and independence skills they need for their next steps.
What We’re Looking For
- QTS or a relevant qualification/degree that supports your ability to teach Maths.
- Strong Maths subject knowledge and confident classroom practice.
- A creative, flexible approach to teaching and learning.
- The ability to build trusting relationships with pupils and understand their individual needs.
