Pupil Support Worker - Kaimes School - 17089_1793092402

£27.26k - £29.85k per annum
Part-time, Full-time

Pupil Support Worker
Kaimes School

Salary: £27,257 - £29,850 per year (pro-rata for part-time and sessional)
Hours: 27.5 per week, 39 week sessional

Working pattern: Monday to Thursday 08:40-15:30 and Friday 08:40-12:05

An exciting opportunity has arisen at Kaimes School, for an enthusiastic Pupil Support Worker to join our team on a permanent basis. The successful candidate will be someone who is nurturing in their approach and is capable of building positive relationships with our learners, parents and staff.

This role offers the opportunity to support learners with a range of additional support needs, helping them to thrive both academically and socially. The ideal candidate would have experience of working with individuals with autism or any other complex needs. Experience of working in a school/education setting would be desirable. A knowledge of autism would be advantageous.

About the School

Kaimes School is a non-denominational special school situated in the South of Edinburgh. The school provides education for secondary-aged learners with complex long-term additional support needs where the presumption of mainstream cannot be met.

The needs of learners are primarily associated with Autistic Spectrum Disorder. The school currently has 15 classes of 6 learners from S1 to S6.

The school is divided into two buildings on the same site. The school also has a range of specially equipped classrooms to support learners' sensory and regulation needs.

Our Approach

A key strength of Kaimes School is our multi-agency approach to supporting our learners, and school staff work closely with Educational Psychologists, CAMHS Learning Disability Team, Allied Health Professionals and third-sector partners in order to meet the needs of our learners.

We pride ourselves on our positive and inclusive ethos and are committed to enabling learners with complex needs to thrive, by raising attainment and promoting achievement through the development of the curriculum and partnership working to meet a wide range of learning needs.

This post is regulated work with children and/or protected adults under the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act 2007. The preferred candidate will be required to join the PVG Scheme or undergo a PVG Scheme update check. Where an individual has spent a continuous period of 3 months or more out with the UK in the last 5 years, an Overseas Criminal Record Check will be required. You will be required to provide this check. An unconditional offer of employment and commencement in the post will be subject to the outcome of both these pre-employment checks being deemed satisfactory.

We are committed to a diverse and inclusive workforce where everyone feels valued and able to be their best. We particularly encourage applications from women for senior roles, as well as people from minority ethnic backgrounds, people with disabilities or neurodivergent people, care experienced people, carers and LGBT+ people across all levels of the organisation, all of whom are currently underrepresented. All applicants will be considered fairly based on skills and experience. Disabled and care-experienced applicants who meet the minimum job criteria will be guaranteed an interview.

Find out more about our commitment to equalities

As part of our goal to improve organisational culture and create a great place to work together for the people of Edinburgh, we want to make sure we're recruiting the best people. We're interested not only in your skills and experience but also in your approach to work. Therefore, part of our interview process will be an assessment of how you would bring Our Behaviours of Respect, Integrity and Flexibility into your ways of working.

You can find out more on Our Behaviours web page Our Behaviours - The City of Edinburgh Council

Our salary range typically reflects the initial starting salary and annually increases until it reaches the top of the range.

Happy to talk flexible working.
