What you'll be doing

• Delivering planned learning activities to individuals, small groups and whole classes.
• Leading lessons in the absence of the class teacher where appropriate.
• Supporting students with different learning needs and helping them overcome barriers to learning.
• Working closely with teaching staff to monitor progress and adapt support where needed.
• Encouraging positive behaviour and creating an inclusive learning environment.
• Contributing to the wider life of the school and supporting extracurricular activities where appropriate.

• Has experience working within a secondary school setting.
• Builds strong relationships with young people while maintaining high expectations.
• Is confident leading learning and supporting classroom management.
• Communicates well with staff, students and parents.
• Is organised, adaptable and enjoys working as part of a team.
