• Provide 1:1 and small group support to pupils with autism across various ages and learning needs.
• Implement support strategies guided by our experienced behaviour analysts and teaching staff.
• Help develop and deliver personalised learning programmes.
• Monitor and record pupil progress.
• Support pupils in developing vital communication, social, and life skills.
• Promote a safe, engaging, and inclusive learning environment.

What We're Looking For

We're seeking someone with:

• A genuine interest in working with children and young people with autism.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills to build rapport with pupils, staff, and parents.
• Patience, resilience, and a proactive approach to challenges.
• A willingness to learn and apply behaviour analysis principles (full training provided).
• Experience in similar settings is a plus, but not essential.

• Extensive training in CABAS, equipping you with valuable skills.
• A supportive, collaborative staff environment where teamwork thrives.
• The chance to be part of a school that's genuinely transforming lives.
