What You’ll Be Doing


• Providing 1:1 support for a pupil with SEN needs, helping them stay engaged and confident

• Using physical activities, structured movement and outdoor learning to build motivation

• Assisting the class teacher with routines, behaviour strategies and targeted interventions

• Supporting emotional regulation with calm -down tools and positive communication

• Encouraging independence, resilience and a love of learning


What We’re Looking For


• Sporty, active and confident working with lively or challenging pupils

• Calm, patient and able to build secure, trusting relationships
