What will I be doing?
We are seeking an enthusiastic TA who has experience at working with children with additional needs. The role is within our Key Stage 2 class. The postholder will assist the class teacher and SENCO to deliver learning programmes to groups of children but mainly, they will work with a child with a high level of special educational needs. This post is challenging, extremely interesting and rewarding. This will involve providing supervision, support and care to a child in Year 5 with sensory and processing needs as well as communication and interaction needs.

The post will also include undertaking a lunch duty one day per week.
What kind of experience or qualifications do I need?

What is in it for me?
Our delightful children are polite, enthusiastic and hardworking and we have a welcoming family atmosphere and caring ethos based on Church School Values and Vision “Grow in the Grace and Knowledge”. We are also a well-resourced school with plenty of hands-on learning.
