Coming from a range of backgrounds, the students you will be working with have additional needs including high-functioning autism and ADHD.
You will be expected to support the class teacher within lessons, helping students to engage in their learning and manage behaviour. You may be working with students on a one-to-one basis, dependent on need. The students may demonstrate challenging behaviour so it is essential that you stay calm and help them regulate.
