SEND Teaching assistant apprentice

Role of the apprentice:

• You will also deliver learning to the children on a bespoke timetable suitable for the children’s individual needs and abilities that have been provided by their schools and put in to planning by our activity planner.


• You will be an enthusiastic and positive person who is driven and passionate to help ‘pushed out’ learners develop skills to work through their struggles and become happy learners. Remembering every day is a new day.


• You will be supporting the children that attend our provision providing them to develop skills and techniques that best suit them as an individual, so they are more equipped to manage and understand themselves as a “whole being” and pave their way back into education.


• You will do this by following and providing a consistent and structured routine which has a flexible smooth flow into each step, to decrease demand and anxiety for the children. Our daily routine is well set out to provide short bursts of learning activity, adult led activities and free play.


• Activities are based on the child’s individual outcomes, learning styles and abilities with the national curriculum in mind. The outcomes will be over seen by the directors and taken from their service agreement and regular review meetings, along with any additional support and reports from other professionals. We also have daily staff and parent debriefs and monthly staff meetings so if any concerns or ideas that may be brought to our attention that a child needs extra support on then this will also be added into their planning.


• You will be encouraged to provide ideas and support to the designated activity planner, who will compile the planning of activities for each child, each day/session for you to follow.


• As a key member of staff that works closely with the children you will also take on the responsibility to ensure the safety of each child and always follow our Safeguarding and Child Protection policy and procedures.


• You will be expected to participate in the development of the organisation and always working towards our ethos. Adhering to the organisations policies and procedures, attending mandatory training, as your role will be a valuable part in the growth of the organisation.
