You may be a Teaching Assistant, sports coach, youth worker, graduate or someone with relevant childcare experience looking to develop a career within education.
Experience working with children is highly desirable, particularly experience supporting children on a 1:1 basis.
Experience supporting children or groups of children with SEN would also be highly desirable, although full training and support will be provided where appropriate.
A background in sports coaching, PE, youth work or similar would be particularly welcomed. The school would love to hear from someone who can use their sporting experience to help children develop their confidence, communication, teamwork and engagement.
