- Assisting with the management of Challenging Behaviour

- Have knowledge/interest and/or experience working with Special Educational Needs
- Feel confident in providing positive reinforcement when supporting behaviour difficulties

- Knowledge of BSL, Makaton, Team Teach, would be desirable but is not essential
