What We Are Looking For:
Experience working with children or young people
A nurturing, patient, and emotionally intelligent approach
A team player who values collaboration and reflection
Passionate about inclusive education and committed to safeguarding and promoting pupil wellbeing
What We Offer:
Salary: Up to £13.53 per hour
Extensive training and career progression
