Teaching Personnel are pleased to be working with a specialist Special Educational Needs provider based in Chichester. Our client is dedicated to delivering specialist education services to children and young adults.
The position will be as a full time EBD/SEMH assistant and will ideally start ASAP. Day-to-day responsibilities will be focused on supporting the teacher with lessons to both primary and secondary pupils with a range of social, emotional and behavioural difficulties. You will also be required to support pupils in small groups and in a 1:1 scenario.
The ideal candidate will have:
- Strong ability and skills to keep students involved and "on track"
- Excellent support and motivation
- Previous experience working with social, emotional and behaviour difficulties
- Flexibility to adapt to unique situations and requirements
- Team Teach experience (although this will be provided via on job training)
- An outstanding track record being reliable, professional, hardworking and punctual
- Hold a current enhanced DBS on the update service or be prepared to apply for a new one
This is a fantastic opportunity to join one of the leading Special Needs Education providers. It is also a chance to make a real difference to the lives of their pupils and students, many of which have previously experienced difficulty in sustained learning within a mainstream provision.
