  • Developing lesson plans and selecting appropriate teaching resources.
  • Identifying areas requiring improvement and providing targeted learning support.
  • Evaluating pupil progress and keeping records of learning outcomes.
  • Using creative and adaptable teaching techniques to maintain engagement.
  • Supporting pupils who experience learning, emotional or behavioural challenges.
  • Maintaining regular communication with parents, schools and other professionals.
  • Following safeguarding guidelines and promoting a positive learning environment.
