Have experience supporting children with additional needs (school-based or similar)

Are patient, caring and reliable

Enjoy working as part of a team and building positive relationships with pupils and staff

Are passionate about supporting children's learning and development

Relevant classroom or SEND experience is desirable, but a positive attitude and willingness to learn are just as important.
