Learning Support Assistant's, Autism School

CAPITA Education are working in partnership with a school that provides education and care for students with moderate learning difficulties and some with Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Some also have other diagnoses such as social, emotional and behavioural difficulties. Students in the sixth form all have ASD and are partly educated in local mainstream colleges.

The school has a residential provision. The school uses this provision to provide activities in the evening for up to 20 students at a time for two nights a week for periods of approximately six weeks. All residential accommodation is in the main building of the school and is organised on two floors with boys' accommodation on the first floor and girls' accommodation on the second floor. The residential area has a TV lounge and, in addition, there is a pool table, a computer room and an arts and crafts area.
The school is a specialist sports' college and currently holds several awards including Healthy Schools status, the Basic Skills Quality Mark and Investors in People.

CAPITA are seeking experienced Teaching Assistants, Learning Support Assistants and Teachers to work at the school on an ad hoc supply basis which may lead to longer term periods of work this academic year. You will have worked in schools previously and be willing to undertake an Enhanced Disclosure DBS before you commence work. CAPITA Education have many similar requirements across the County and City at a variety of Special Educational Needs schools. Please forward your CV on today and one of our consultants will be in touch if you have the necessary qualifications and experience the school is looking for.
