This position is ideal for someone who is passionate about inclusive education, enjoys working flexibly across different environments and is confident working 1:1 or in small groups.

• Escort and supervise children safely in your own vehicle to and from outreach provisions (mileage allowance provided).

• Liaise with school staff, SENCOs, and other professionals to ensure continuity of care and education.

• Support the emotional, behavioural, and academic development of pupils in a nurturing, patient manner.

• Accurately record session outcomes and provide feedback to the wider SEN team.

• Experience working with children with Special Educational Needs (ASD, ADHD, SEMH, MLD, etc.)

• Full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle suitable for transporting children (business insurance may be required).

• A calm, resilient, and flexible approach to working with young people.

• Strong communication and interpersonal skills.

• An enhanced DBS (or willingness to apply for one).

• Relevant qualification or training in SEN support is desirable but not essential.

• Daily rate of £88 to £95, depending on experience.

• Regular, consistent hours during school term-time.
