The Governors are looking to appoint 2 Learning Support Assistants (both fixed term to 17th December 2021) to start as soon as possible. This is an opportunity to join a forward-thinking school, where pupils’ behaviour is consistently outstanding. We are part of the Gosforth Schools' Trust where there are opportunities to build common approaches to supporting SEND pupils' needs.

Our staff work in first rate facilities with access to the newest technology. We are committed to staff well-being and our support team report feeling valued and well supported.

We would be delighted to receive applications from people with experience in supporting pupils with SEMH needs, an ASD diagnosis or needs with Cognition and Learning.
