• A patient, caring, and enthusiastic individual with excellent communication skills.
• A commitment to the well-being and development of each child.
• Relevant qualifications (e.g., Level 2/3 in Supporting Teaching and Learning) are an advantage but not essential.

This is a fantastic chance to play a meaningful role in the education and development of pupils with SEN in a lovely and welcoming class.
