• Under the direction of teachers, preparing engaging learning resources, design vibrant classroom displays and help keep student records up to date.

• hold at least GCSE-equivalent qualifications (NVQ Level 2 or equivalent) in English and Maths.
• have a background working with young people
• be passionate about student welfare and are ready to actively protect and promote the safety of our pupils.
• be an effective multitasker who can manage a busy daily schedule with a calm, polite and professional approach.
