Learning Support Assistant

Langley Park School for Girls is seeking to appoint an enthusiastic Learning Support Assistant to join our SEND Hub as soon as possible. You will support an individual named child or various individual students with special educational needs and disabilities across the curriculum. Working with class teachers across the curriculum, the SEND team and medical support staff, you will assist students with their education and, where appropriate, support access to the curriculum for those who are physically or otherwise prevented from doing so themselves.

This post would be ideal for someone who has an interest in working within SEND or someone who is considering a future career in teaching. If you are keen to support students in a particular subject area or are looking for a role which enables you to develop your subject expertise, we would be interested in hearing from you. Although experience and/or any relevant qualifications are desirable, first and foremost we want to appoint those with a commitment to working with children and young people to complement our team.

You will have access to on-site training and support which is specifically linked to the needs of identified students. Langley Park School for Girls (LPGS) is a high achieving, popular and well-respected school within our local community. Situated on the Langley Park campus alongside our neighbouring boys' school and primary school, we benefit from excellent transport links to and from central London and proximity to the Kent countryside.

LPGS is an exciting place to work; a school in which students are motivated to achieve their best and work hard to make exceptional progress. We want our students to leave LPGS empowered to shape their own lives, and those of others, as the leaders of tomorrow. "Pupils flourish into independent, confident young adults at this school." "Pupils are polite, kind and respectful to one another.

They have strong professional relationships with their teachers." (Ofsted) "The school curriculum supports pupils to excel." (Ofsted) We can offer:

• Highly motivated students with a commitment to their learning.
• Very good standards of student behaviour.
• Innovative approaches to Teacher Professional Development.
• Opportunities to work and grow within our trust and beyond the school.
• A friendly and supportive working environment.
