Are
you a graduate considering a career in teaching and looking for some experience
of working within a school first? Or, not looking to get into teaching,
but would like to work with our students as a
Learning Support Assistant, then we would like to hear from you.
We
are looking to expand our team of Learning Support Assistants to meet
the current needs of our students on the SEN register. The
successful candidate should have good communication skills, patience, a
flexible approach, as well as the ability to work within a team. Above
all, it is essential that you will
be committed to supporting students with Special
Educational Needs. You will need to have a good general education with
sound literacy, numeracy and IT skills to be able to
provide support to students across all subjects. Knowledge and
experience of working with students who display challenging behaviour is
desirable.
The
successful candidate would be involved with supporting students in
lessons and helping with exams, but there is potential for planning and running
1:1 or small group interventions. Knowledge or experience of working with
children who have learning difficulties is desirable, however this is not
essential as training in these areas can be provided.
If
you are a graduate considering a career in teaching, we have a depth of
experience in working with both PGCE and SCITT. Informal enquiries are
welcome please contact Natalie Webb, SENCo on
natalie.webb@horndeantc.hants.sch.uk
The
College is committed to safeguarding children and promoting the
welfare of young people and expects all staff and volunteers
to share this commitment.
