This is to work within a large SEN School in Wolverhampton. This school is well equipped and accommodates pupils from 2-18yrs old. They are looking for somebody to work with the child and develop their education and social abilities with some 1-2-1 work as well as assisting in the classroom.
We have been working with this school for 4 years and have had brilliant feedback from many of the staff we have placed there. Our previous candidates have commented on how happy and welcoming both children and staff are. As well as having a supportive team within the school I am always available to offer support where needed.
As a full time Teaching Assistant working with ASD we and the school will expect you to;
-Have a high understanding of ASD and the range of needs the pupil may have
-Be an active thinker as the pupil tends to lash out through their needs and not want to participate with the task in hand
-Have a calm approach to the pupil and build a positive relationship
-Be able to support the development of the child's social and emotional development using THRIVE
This is a great opportunity to work within a one of the best SEN schools in the area with the potential to secure a permanent post at the end.
