Help learners take part, build confidence and move towards independence.
Learning support can change how a student experiences college.
For some learners, the right support helps them understand a task.
For others, it helps them communicate, move safely around college, use equipment, manage anxiety or take part in practical learning for the first time.
As a Learning Support Assistant, you’ll provide support to students with learning difficulties, disabilities, medical needs or other additional support needs.
You’ll work in classrooms, workshops, realistic working environments, visits and wider college activities, helping learners participate fully and progress with confidence.
You’ll work closely with Learning Support Officers, teaching staff and wider college colleagues.
Support will be guided by each learner’s Additional Learning Support Plan and may include practical help, note-taking, personal care, assistive technology, communication support or encouragement to develop independence.
This role suits someone who is patient, observant and respectful.
You do not need to have all the answers on day one.
You do need to care about inclusion, follow agreed support plans and understand that the goal is not to do everything for learners, but to help them build the skills and confidence to do more for themselves.
