About this role

You’ll be part of a dynamic and supportive environment where no two days are the same. The role is ideal for individuals seeking meaningful, hands-on experience in an innovative educational setting. Although the position follows a Monday-to-Friday schedule, occasional flexibility will be required for urgent needs or College events outside standard hours—any additional time worked can be reclaimed.

While not exhaustive, your key duties will include: Providing tailored classroom support to students with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Offering one-to-one assistance both within the classroom and in the Learner Assistance Base (LAB). Delivering ‘drop-in’ support sessions for students requiring extra help to complete coursework. Collaborating closely with teaching staff to coordinate and plan effective student support strategies. Accompanying and supporting students during educational visits and off-site activities. Understanding and implementing exam access arrangements, as well as supporting students during assessments. Additional Responsibilities Administration Manage and maintain SEND records, including documenting interviews, phone calls, enquiries, and collecting relevant documentation (e.g., student statements and medical information). Contribute to the creation and review of Individual Student Support Plans. Attend College Open Evenings as needed. Student Recruitment & Initial Assessment Assist in student recruitment and support initial assessment processes. Perform other duties as reasonably requested by your Line Manager or the Principal.
