Are you a dedicated and passionate Higher Level Teaching Assistant (HLTA) seeking a rewarding opportunity to make a positive impact on the education of a student with special educational needs? We are currently seeking an experienced HLTA to join the team at our partnered school in Warwick, working closely with a student who has an Education, Health, and Care Plan (EHCP).

The school committed to providing a supportive and inclusive learning environment for all our students.

  • Provide one-on-one support to the student, delivering targeted interventions and differentiated instruction across various subjects.
  • Assist in creating and adapting resources, materials, and activities to accommodate the student's learning requirements.
  • Encourage independent learning and promote the student's participation in class activities, ensuring their inclusion within the mainstream classroom.
  • Foster a positive and nurturing learning environment that promotes the student's self-esteem, social skills, and overall well-being.
  • Monitor and track the student's progress, maintaining accurate records and providing regular feedback to the SEN team and relevant stakeholders.
  • Collaborate with other school staff, such as educational psychologists, speech and language therapists, and occupational therapists, to implement additional strategies and support as required.
  • Attend relevant meetings, including Individual Education Plan (IEP) meetings and annual reviews, actively contributing to discussions regarding the student's progress and individual needs.
  • Communicate effectively with parents/guardians, providing updates on the student's progress and offering guidance on how to support their child's learning at home.
  • Adhere to the school's policies and procedures, ensuring the safety and well-being of the student at all times.

    • Requirements:

    • HLTA qualification or equivalent experience working in a similar role.
    • Proven experience supporting students with special educational needs, preferably in a mainstream secondary school setting.
    • Sound knowledge of different learning strategies and interventions for students with diverse needs.
    • Familiarity with EHCPs and the ability to implement strategies outlined in the plan effectively.
    • Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to build positive relationships with students, staff, parents, and external professionals.
    • Patience, empathy, and resilience to meet the challenges and demands of working with students with SEN.
    • Excellent organisational skills and the ability to manage time effectively.
    • Effective communication skills, both verbal and written.
