Job description

Overview

Student Support Workers work directly with day students, and develop the insight, skills and competencies to support students to thrive as young adults. Students are all special school leavers, with ambitious visions for busy fulfilling lives at and beyond college. Students are considered to have special educational needs and disabilities. Our students follow a pathway relevant to their starting points, and student support workers can develop specialist knowledge behaviours and skills in working with individuals who have complex, multiple and profound disabilities, through to those who aspire to gain paid or voluntary employment.

As a specialist post-16 college setting, we have a wide range of health professionals including nurses, occupational therapists, speech and language specialists, physiotherapists and eating and drinking specialists, along with an ethos to support and promote positive behaviours. Senior Student Support Workers work with teachers, tutors and health professionals to extend learning into life outside of the college setting. The goal is resilient graduates, who are confident as young adults and believe in themselves; they show this through reduced reliance on others and through self-advocacy.

Our students enjoy learning and they love our college, so we do have a lot to smile about. We are a close knit team and would welcome new colleagues to be part of this enabling, empowering and equipping world of supporting students to fulfil their potential.

Responsibilities

• Plan and deliver a highly differentiated, person-centred curriculum aligned to individual education outcomes, enabling learners to achieve their full potential.
• Work collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team to ensure learners have equitable access to opportunities that prepare them for adulthood.
• Design learning that enables measurable progress and achievement, maintaining robust evidence against EHCP outcomes through effective recording and reporting.
• Deliver engaging, high-quality learning across creative and functional subjects for learners with complex cognition, learning and physical needs.
• Identify and remove barriers to learning through consistent application of individual support plans, risk assessments and protocols.
• Set and review ambitious long-term outcomes and SMART targets, monitoring progress through high-quality assessment and reporting.
• Promote literacy, life skills and independence, ensuring learning is relevant and meaningful to each learner.
• Embed therapeutic interventions and assistive technologies into learners\' programmes in a person-centred way.
• Lead effective classroom management, deploying learning and support staff efficiently.
• Plan and deliver enrichment activities, trips and visits in line with health, safety and safeguarding requirements.
• Act as Personal Tutor for a designated caseload of students.
• Contribute to continuous improvement, staff development and quality assurance activities.
• Ensure compliance with organisational policies, safeguarding, health & safety and data protection requirements.
• Undertake any other duties commensurate with the role as required by college leadership.
