• Experience working with children or young people with severe or profound learning difficulties and physical disabilities (or relevant transferable experience, e.g., in care settings).
• Confidence supporting children with complex medical or physical care needs, or willingness to be trained.
• A valid Child and Adult Workforce DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to apply for one.
