- Leading small group and one-to-one interventions to help pupils reach their full potential
- Working closely with teachers to plan and deliver engaging learning activities
- Supporting pupils with varying learning needs, including those with SEND

- Experience supporting teaching and learning within a primary school
- Confidence leading whole-class learning when required
- Strong behaviour management and excellent classroom presence
- A flexible, proactive, and positive approach
- Excellent communication and teamwork skills
- A genuine passion for helping children achieve their best
- Experience supporting pupils with SEND would be an advantage, but isn’t essential
