Empowering students with additional needs

Are you calm and compassionate in all situations?

If you answered yes, this could be the perfect role for you!

A supportive SEN school in Reading is looking for a Classroom Mentor to provide one-on-one and group support for students with special educational needs. The role requires someone who can start as soon as possible and commit through July 2024.

In this role, you will be working with students aged 3 to 18 with a wide range of needs, including Autism, ADHD, Down syndrome, sensory processing issues, physical disabilities, and communication challenges. You will support students in their learning objectives and help manage emotional and behavioural situations alongside the SENCO and teaching staff, providing vital assistance to ensure students are supported both academically and emotionally.

This exceptional SEN school offers extensive facilities designed to meet the needs of its students, including dedicated art and IT spaces, a drama room, an outdoor sports field, and a well-equipped gymnasium. The staff is eager to welcome a friendly, upbeat SEN Classroom Mentor to join their team.

The ideal candidate will be resilient, compassionate, and positive. Previous experience working with children, especially those with additional needs, would be an asset, though personal qualities are more important. This is an excellent opportunity for recent graduates interested in gaining experience in education or pursuing careers in psychology or mental health.
