This role is situated within the school’s specialist SEN Unit—a well-resourced, inclusive provision designed to support pupils with additional needs within a primary setting.
You will be working on a 2:1 basis alongside another experienced support worker to provide full-time, individualised support for a Key Stage 2 (KS2) pupil with complex needs. This is a long-term temporary position offering stability, predictable hours, and the chance to make a lasting difference.

Assist with personal care, mobility, and communication strategies throughout the school day.
*
Create a safe, calm, and structured environment that supports the pupil's emotional and educational development.
*
Build strong, professional relationships with school staff, therapists, and family members.
Requirements:
*
Proven experience supporting children or young adults with complex SEN (e.g., severe learning difficulties, severe autism, or physical needs).
*
Strong teamwork skills and the ability to partner effectively in a 2:1 support setup.
*
Outstanding patience, resilience, and a proactive attitude.
*
Level 2 or Level 3 Teaching Assistant qualification (or equivalent SEN/care experience).
*
An Enhanced Child Workforce DBS on the Update Service (or willingness to process one).
