  • Reinforcing key skills - literacy, numeracy, reading, writing, and comprehension
  • Supporting students with SEMH and behavioural needs to stay engaged in learning
  • Working closely with teachers to support progress and attainment in lessons
  • Building strong, consistent relationships to support both academic and emotional development

This is a hands-on intervention role with a clear focus on progress in English and Maths

Ideal Candidate

  • SEN Teaching Assistants / LSAs
  • English or Maths Tutors / Intervention Tutors
  • Behaviour Mentors / Pastoral Support staff
  • Graduates in English, Maths, Psychology or related subjects
  • Aspiring Teachers looking to gain classroom experience

What We're Looking For

  • Knowledge of English and/or Maths (KS3 & KS4)
  • Experience supporting students with SEN, SEMH, or challenging behaviour
  • Confidence delivering 1:1 and small group interventions
  • Ability to support both academic progress and emotional regulation
  • Patient, resilient, and proactive approach

What's on Offer

  • £27,122 annual salary (paid 52 weeks)
  • 14 weeks holiday + 18 INSET days
  • Structured 12-month induction programme
  • Ongoing CPD and training opportunities
  • Free on-site meals
  • Supportive school that values staff as a key part of student success
