An SEN support mentor will work alongside teaching assistants, class teachers, leadership and external support staff in creating a safe, structured, interactive and fun learning environment. The role will be working with children who have a range of learning needs, such as Autism, Asperger's, Down Syndrome and other learning disabilities, along with supporting their social development, behavioural needs and at times, medical/physical requirements.

The ideal candidate will be:

  • Pro-Active: Be passionate and committed to creating a fun, interactive and creative learning environment, be willing to get involved in the learners' classes and play sessions.
  • Confident: Be comfortable supporting a range of different needs across multiple age groups, and able to adapt your care and support style depending on the class you are working with.
  • Passionate: Someone who has the children's care and education at the forefront of everything they do, whether that is creating new ideas for the sensory session or sitting 1:1 with a learner to focus on communication development.
  • Resilient: SEN based roles can be tough at times, a support mentor will be someone who helps other staff during those busy times and helps calm the situation when children get upset or go into crisis!

This role is ideal for anyone with previous school, care, support worker or learning needs experience!
