• Work alongside SENCOs, class teachers, and external professionals (e.g., SaLTs and EPs)
• Track student progress and contribute to review meetings and support plans

What We’re Looking For:

• A degree in Psychology, Education, or a related field (minimum 2:1 preferred)
• Genuine interest in SEN, mental health, and child development
• Patience, empathy, and strong interpersonal skills
• Experience working with children or young people (voluntary or paid) is advantageous
• Commitment to working full-time for the academic year

What’s on Offer:

• Full-time, paid experience in a vibrant and inclusive London school
• Ideal preparation for Master’s applications in Educational Psychology or SaLT
