Whether you are looking for day to day supply, short term or long term placements, we can help you!

What Schools do we work with?
As the SEN Consultant for York and Scarborough, I support a number of Schools. One of my main Clients is a Primary School in Acomb, which caters for children with a range of Special Educational Needs. With 15 classes across the School, the Academy is constantly expanding. With most classes having up to 8 children, staff ratios are high and are usually on a 2:1 basis. Do you have experience managing behaviour effectively, or supporting those with a range of learning difficulties, physical disabilities or autism? If so then you could add value to the School and enhance their pupil’s learning.

What do I need to work with Teaching Personnel?
As a candidate for Teaching Personnel, we expect a high level of professionalism from you and Schools are keen to see you be enthusiastic and proactive. With SEN and Behaviour Schools having unexpected pupils on roll from week to week, you need to be adaptable to the environment and understand how different types of Special Educational Needs can affect people.
