Every pupil has their own way of learning, communicating and developing. We're looking for people who understand the importance of that.
Parker Smith Inclusion is recruiting Learning Support Assistants to work in a specialist SEND school supporting children and young people aged 3–19 with severe learning difficulties (SLD), profound and multiple learning difficulties (PMLD) and complex needs.
You'll be working closely with teachers, therapists and other support staff, helping pupils access learning, develop communication skills and build independence at their own pace.
What will the role involve?
-
Providing 1:1 and small-group classroom support.
-
Helping pupils engage with lessons and everyday activities.
-
Supporting communication and social development.
-
Adapting activities to meet individual abilities and needs.
-
Encouraging independence and personal development.
-
Providing personal care where required.
-
Creating a safe, positive and supportive learning environment.
Who would suit this role?
Previous experience in SEND, SLD or PMLD settings would be beneficial, but it isn't essential.
We're also interested in people with backgrounds in education, childcare, care or support work who are keen to develop their experience in specialist education.
You'll need to be:
-
Patient, caring and understanding.
-
Reliable and comfortable working as part of a team.
-
Flexible and willing to learn.
-
Confident building positive relationships.
-
Genuinely interested in helping children and young people develop.
An understanding that progress looks different for every pupil is particularly important.
