School Care Assistant - Kingston Upon Thames
We are currently recruiting for a School Care Assistant to support children within an SEN school based in Kingston Upon Thames. The role will be working full-time to support students with moderate to severe Special Educational Needs who require personal care such as feeding, washing, dressing, and some medicating. Some students will be wheelchair-bound and non-verbal. The activities will be both on and off-site to support children with their independence and readiness for life after leaving school.
The role will be based in a SEN school where most students will have 1:1 support, if not 2:1, and will be in small groups and classes of a maximum of 10. Although this role is predominantly 1:1, there will be support when needed, but as a School Care Assistant, you will be required to support children without supervision when necessary.
Requirements:
* Either live in Kingston or within a commutable distance
* Have an enhanced child & adult DBS on the update service or be willing to obtain a new one
* Experience as a School Care Assistant is preferred, though not essential
* Must have SEN experience
* Be comfortable performing personal care when needed
If successful, you will be a School Care Assistant throughout the entire academic year with the potential of going permanent in the future. Part-time candidates are welcome to apply as we may have supply work during busier times of the academic year.
Apply now if you are interested in this role. If suitable, you will be contacted to process your application further!
We reserve the right to bring forward the closing date of the adverts should we receive a sufficient level of interest.
