• Nurturing Environment: Our small class sizes ensure that you will work with a limited number of students, typically in one-on-one or small group settings. This approach allows you to build meaningful relationships and provide personalised support that encourages growth and confidence.

• Tailored Learning Experiences: We pride ourselves on offering an individualised curriculum that adapts to each student’s unique abilities and challenges.

• Innovative Facilities: Our facilities include specialised sensory rooms designed to support sensory regulation and therapeutic learning. We also have outdoor learning spaces that promote physical activity and experiential learning.

• Professional Development: Enjoy access to specialised training opportunities and continuous professional development, enhancing your skills in SEND support and education.

Requirements:
We are looking for someone who is outgoing, proactive, caring and patient, with experience working with children or vulnerable adults.

Here's just a few of the best examples:

• Graduates: Art, Drama, Psychology, Sociology, Criminology and Sports
• Youth leaders
• Support workers
• Sports coaches
• Care Assistants
• Nursery Nurses

Please note – if your current role isn’t on this list but you work closely with vulnerable adults or children then please do get in touch!

Responsibilities:
• Support and educate vulnerable children
• Be a positive role model and set clear boundaries
• Learn quickly, be proactive, and seek feedback
• Show resilience, patience, and care, especially with challenging students

Benefits:
• Online training and CPD, including autism awareness
• Weekly pay at a £89+ per day rate
• Sociable hours: Monday to Friday, 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM
• Invaluable experience for your career
