• Has experience working with children, particularly those with Special Educational Needs
• Is calm, patient and genuinely enjoys helping children succeed
• Communicates well and works positively as part of a team
• Can adapt their approach to meet the individual needs of the child
• Holds relevant qualifications or training in education or SEND, although this isn't essential if you have the right experience and attitude

What's in it for you?

• Pay from £14.25 per hour, increasing with experience
• School hours of 8:30am to 3:30pm, helping you enjoy a healthy work-life balance
• FREE access to our online CPD Academy
