The role requires creativity, patience, and a strong understanding of differentiated teaching approaches suited to pupils with complex needs.

• Plan and deliver personalised, sensory‑based and engaging lessons tailored to pupils with SLD
• Develop IEPs and contribute to EHCPs
• Assess and monitor pupil progress using appropriate assessment frameworks
