About the Role

You will work closely with the class teacher and SENDCo to support a pupil who benefits from regular movement and sensory breaks throughout the day. There are no behavioural needs, but the ability to recognise when the pupil needs time away from the classroom is essential.

The pupil responds particularly well to sports and active learning, so an interest in physical activity or outdoor learning would be a great asset in this role.

* Deliver engaging, practical learning activities that include movement and sport where appropriate

* Foster a positive, calm, and encouraging environment

* Liaise with teaching and support staff to ensure consistent provision

* Support the pupil in developing confidence, independence, and a love of learning

We’re Looking For Someone Who

* Has experience working with children in EYFS or Key Stage 1 (desirable)

* Can confidently adapt their approach in response to a pupil’s needs

* Has a patient, flexible, and proactive attitude

* Confident supporting on a 1:1 basis

What We Offer

* Ongoing training and professional development

* A designated local consultant

* Competitive daily rate
