• Working collaboratively with teachers, pastoral staff and external professionals to provide tailored support for each pupil
• Building positive, trusting relationships that help pupils feel safe, valued and ready to learn
• Contributing to a calm, structured and supportive learning environment where every pupil can thrive
The Ideal Teaching Assistant Will:
• Have personal or professional experience supporting children and young people with SEMH, autism, ADHD or other additional needs, whether as a Teaching Assistant, Learning Support Assistant, Support Worker, Care Worker, Youth Worker, or through personal experience supporting a family member or individual with additional needs

• Have a genuine interest in SEMH education, trauma-informed practice and inclusive learning environments
• Be committed to supporting both the academic progress and personal development of pupils
• Work effectively as part of a dedicated multidisciplinary team
