• To support and enhance the teaching and support practice of others in the main school.

• To work with parents and families to share the aims of the ARB.
• To complete Individual Support Plans linked to Education Health Care Plans for the students and regularly measure progress towards these targets.
• To promote and develop a creative, innovative and team working approach to learning.

• Opportunities for professional development
• A well- resourced learning environment
• A chance to make a difference to the lives of young people and their families
