Person Specification – Graduate Learning Support Assistant

This Graduate Learning Support Assistant role requires a capable graduate who has worked with children in either a volunteer or paid role and who has earned a second class degree or better. You must show the ability to clearly show you are committed and determined. You should possess an upstanding moral attitude that can act as a compass for students within the school who may be lacking an appropriate role model at home. You will be a graduate who can use your unending resolve to ensure you are always driving your career in education forward.

About the Graduate Learning Support Assistant role

In this Graduate Learning Support Assistant post you will be supporting teaching across the whole school and you will be receiving support from a SENCO who is your particular mentor. Although competition is strong, the Head Teacher often keeps a few School Direct placements free for budding teachers who are already working at the school in the support team. Part of your role will include leading targeted sessions for SEN pupils who benefit from the extra support in both academic and social skill development. This Graduate Learning Support Assistant position involves leading your own intervention and booster groups and tutoring some students in 1:1 sessions.
