• Knowledge of positive behaviour support strategies, sensory needs and approaches to supporting emotional regulation
• Confidence supporting pupils with personal care where required and adapting between classroom and sensory-friendly learning environments
• A patient, resilient and nurturing approach, with the ability to build positive relationships and work collaboratively with teachers and support staff

• A dedicated team of consultants available 24/7 to help you with the easy onboarding process
