Salary: M1-UPS3 + TLR1c (outer London)
Contract: Permanent, full time
Start Date: April (or sooner)
About the role:
The SEND/EAL department is a vital part of the school community, directly bridging the link between the inclusion teams and curriculum teams in order to provide support for all of their boys. As a department, they pride themselves in working alongside all staff and external professionals to ensure that no boy is left behind and all of their pupils have every opportunity to access the fullest possible curriculum.
The department consists of the SENCo, SEN Administrator, 4 HLTAs and a team of Teaching Assistants. They work alongside teachers and students to provide a range of interventions from Wave 1 - High quality first teaching for all. When more specialist help is required, students are invited for Wave 2 - Interventions all the way to Wave 3 - Highly Personalised interventions.
In addition to these supporting measures, each Teaching Assistant plays the role of Keyworker, a fundamental role in the life of EHCP students at their school. As a Key Worker, each Teaching Assistant forms a special working relationship with both pupil and family to ensure they are supported both academically and pastorally. They also coordinate provision from a number of external agencies for those with additional needs such as Educational Psychologists, CAMHS, Speech and Language Therapists, and more.
