Pro-rata: £11,817 - £12,192

Monday to Friday, part time afternoons, 11:30 am - 3:30 pm (20 hours)

We are looking to recruit classroom / personal support assistants to start as soon as possible. As well as the main Reynalds Cross site we have a satellite site in Green Lane, Shirley and you may be asked to work at either.

You will be joining teams of dedicated and supportive professionals working with pupils who have learning difficulties. So if you have the ability to show empathy, patience, initiative and understanding needed when working with pupils who have a range of learning difficulties, complex medical needs and behavioural challenges we would love to hear from you. The job requires you to support during teaching time and free choice times. You will have personal pupil care plans to follow and part of your role will involve carrying out personal care and hygiene needs. There is a physical and active element to this role so you will need a good level of physical fitness.

Previous experience of working in a school or special school environment would be helpful but is not essential.

Your application should reflect that you have the relevant skills and personal qualities stated in the job description, person specification and asked for in this advertisement. Our school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff and children to share this commitment. All staff are expected to have an enhanced DBS check.

This post is covered by the Fluency Duty, as outlined in the Code of Practice on the English language requirements for public sector workers.
