**The Role:**
* Supporting pupils with speech, language, and communication needs

**Requirements:**
* Experience working with children with SEND or additional needs
* Strong communication and interpersonal skills

**Why Work with Aspire People:**
* Flexible and long-term opportunities available
* Competitive daily pay rates
* Access to CPD and specialist SEND experience
* Dedicated consultant support

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys **supporting a range of pupils within a classroom setting rather than purely 1:1 work**.

Placements are subject, to appropriate Child Protection screening, including checks with former employers and the Disclosure and Barring Checks.
