Develop individualized education plans (IEPs) in collaboration with the SENCO and other team members. Foster a positive and inclusive learning environment where each child can reach their full potential. Engage in regular planning sessions with the SENCO, ensuring alignment on approaches, resources, and outcomes. Support students in a hands-on capacity, adapting materials and methods to meet their unique developmental stages, including those working significantly below age-related expectations.

Ideal Candidate Profile:

Experienced HLTA: Proven experience supporting children with ASD and SEMH needs in an educational setting. Strong Leadership Skills: Confident in leading a small team, with the ability to foster teamwork and a supportive environment. Compassionate & Patient: Dedicated to understanding each child's individual needs, with a caring approach toward non-verbal and developmentally delayed students. Collaborative Planner: Enjoys working with the SENCO and other educators to design and implement effective learning strategies. Creative Problem-Solver: Able to adapt approaches creatively to meet children’s unique challenges and learning levels.

Why Join Us?

This is more than just a job—it’s a chance to be part of a team that truly cares. You’ll be part of a positive, collaborative school environment where every team member is valued and every child is supported. If you’re looking to grow in your career and make a real difference, we would love to hear from you.
