The pupils have varied needs but will include:

• Autism
• Behavioural difficulties
• ADHD
• Anxiety issues

The school we work with use a differentiated curriculum to help support the students through their specific needs, that have lead them out of mainstream schooling. The schools encourage a very close pupil and teacher relationships, to help aide pupils through their education more efficiently whilst also encouraging moral and social support.

The School successful candidates will be placed in have phenomenal grounds which includes a forest, football pitch, swimming pool and plenty of outdoor area. The picturesque school is an all boys school for Behavioural and Autistic pupils, where candidates will be working closely on a 1:1 basis with the pupils.

The salary will vary between £270-£360 per week depending on the successful candidates experience.

The Candidate:

Ideal candidates will need to drive and have access to a vehicle. Candidates that don't meet this criteria can still apply, as we will likely work with school local to you.

• Care worker
• Challenging behaviour within family
