• Liaise effectively with parents, carers, external professionals and the wider school team
• Promote inclusion and support successful reintegration into mainstream classes where appropriate
• Provide consistent routines, structure and positive behaviour support throughout the school day
• Support pupils with communication difficulties using visual supports, sensory strategies and alternative communication methods where needed
