Role Overview: As a support worker, you’ll assist either Primary or Secondary-aged pupils in the classroom, supporting the teacher as they deliver creative and dynamic lessons tailored to each pupil’s learning needs.

Key Responsibilities:

• Support young people in their learning and development, both emotionally and physically.

• Contribute to sensory lessons, soft play, outdoor activities, swimming, and classroom-based tasks.
• Work alongside the classroom teacher and other support staff to ensure the safety and well-being of pupils.
• Assist with day trips and outings to local attractions and venues.

• Passionate about helping young people and committed to providing consistent, calm, and compassionate support.
• Strong communication skills to effectively collaborate with pupils and the wider staff team.
• Committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of young people.

• School hours: 8:30 AM – 3:30 PM, Monday to Friday, term time.
• Ongoing training and support, including Safeguarding Training.
