This is a rewarding opportunity to work with children and young people who require additional support to thrive. While experience supporting pupils with SEND, SEMH, or other complex needs would be beneficial, it is not essential.

We're looking for people who are:

• Resilient, calm, and adaptable
• Skilled at building positive and trusting relationships
• Confident in maintaining clear, consistent boundaries
• Patient and supportive, even when situations become challenging
• Passionate about helping children overcome barriers to learning and development
• Open to learning new strategies and approaches

Experience that would be welcomed:

• SEND or SEMH support
• Education, care, youth work, or similar settings
• Supporting children or young people with additional or complex needs

In return, you'll become part of a supportive team where your contribution is valued and where you can make a genuine difference in the lives of children and young people every day.
