Description:
Communication changes lives. Could you be the person who helps make that connection?
We're looking for caring, confident, and dedicated individuals with BSL (British Sign Language) or Makaton training to join a fantastic SEND school in Bath.
This isn't just another support role. It's a chance to be the person who helps young people find their voice, build confidence, and access learning in a way that works for them.
The school supports children and young people with a range of additional needs, including communication and language difficulties. Every day is different, but one thing stays the same, your support will make a genuine difference.
What you'll be doing
Supporting pupils with communication needs in the classroom
Using BSL or Makaton to help students engage with learning and express themselves
Building positive, trusting relationships with young people
Encouraging independence, confidence, and social development
Working closely with teachers, therapists, and support staff to create a positive learning environment
We're looking for someone who:
Has BSL and/or Makaton training or experience
Is naturally caring, patient, and empathetic
Feels passionate about supporting young people with additional needs
Is confident communicating with pupils, families, and colleagues
Can stay calm, positive, and adaptable throughout the school day
Wants to be part of a team that celebrates every achievement, big or small
Why this role?
Because sometimes the biggest wins aren't measured in grades.
They're measured in a pupil signing a sentence independently for the first time.
In a young person feeling confident enough to join a conversation.
In knowing you've helped someone feel understood.
