Support pupils with sensory needs and help manage behaviour, using appropriate techniques for children with autism and sensory processing issues. Assist pupils with physical disabilities, helping with mobility, transfers, and use of specialised equipment. Work with teachers and therapists to implement individual education plans (IEPs) and monitor progress. Create a positive and supportive classroom environment tailored to the unique needs of each child. What We’re Looking For: Experience working with children with additional needs. A patient, compassionate, and resilient approach to supporting children with complex needs. Familiarity with Makaton, PECS, or other communication methods (desirable but not essential). Willingness to assist with personal care tasks and provide support for children with physical disabilities. Strong teamwork and communication skills, working closely with teachers, support staff, and health professionals. Enhanced DBS on the update service (or willingness to apply for one).
