Supply Opportunity – ALN School Support (Haverfordwest Area)

Are you passionate about supporting children and young people with additional needs? Teaching Personnel are working in partnership with a specialist through school in the Haverfordwest area, and we are looking for compassionate, adaptable individuals to join our supply team.

About the Role

This is a rewarding opportunity to work on a supply basis within a specialist setting supporting pupils aged 3–19 years. The school caters for learners with a wide range of additional learning needs, meaning every day brings new experiences and opportunities to make a genuine difference.

Pupils at the school have diverse needs, including:

  • Social, emotional and mental health needs (SEMH)
  • More complex needs such as Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties (PMLD)
  • Pupils who may require wheelchair support and personal care

  • Supporting a pupil in a sensory session to help regulate their emotions

  • Supporting classroom learning through tailored activities adapted to individual learning styles
  • Encouraging positive behaviour and engagement in line with individual behaviour plans
  • Working closely with teachers, therapists and support staff to deliver a holistic approach to learning

A typical day may involve a mix of structured classroom support, 1:1 intervention, sensory activities, outdoor learning, and helping pupils develop essential life skills. Flexibility, patience, and a proactive attitude are key.

✅ Requirements

  • Hold an Enhanced DBS check on the Update Service (or be willing to obtain one)
  • Be registered with the Education Workforce Council (EWC) (or willing to obtain registration)
  • Have a genuine passion for working with children with additional needs
  • Be adaptable, resilient, and willing to get involved in all aspects of school life

  • A dedicated consultant to guide and support you throughout your placements

  • Access to our CPD Academy, including specialist training in:

    • Behaviour management
