The role will involve working on a 1:1 basis with pupils aged 11-16; the students are in need of extra support and guidance during their lesson time. The main aspect of the role will be helping the students to engage with their learning, and encouraging personal and social development whilst managing challenging behaviour throughout the day. You will be expected to monitor student's personal progress within lessons, and you will have regular meetings with the class teacher to discuss this and to provide support for yourself within the role. Students in this provision often display extremely challenging behaviour, as well as social emotional and mental health difficulties.

We have an upcoming Team Teach training course which will highly benefit you in this role in order to best manage challenging behaviour. You will be supported by a specialist team of SEN recruitment consultants with education backgrounds, who are well placed to enrol you onto your desired courses and place you into schools.
Teaching Personnel can offer behaviour support assistant's competitive pay rates of up to £65 per day.
