  • Promoting independence and helping pupils develop essential life skills.
  • Building positive relationships with pupils, staff, and families.
  • Working collaboratively with teachers, therapists, and other professionals to support student progress.

Requirements

  • Experience working with children, young people, or individuals with additional needs is desirable but not essential.
  • A patient, caring, and resilient approach.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
  • A genuine passion for supporting children and young people with Autism.
  • Ability to work effectively as part of a team.
  • Commitment to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people.
