SEND Lunchtime Support (Part Time, Contracted)

Huddersfield

February 2024 - Ongoing

The School and Role

Excellent opportunity with a clear career pathway available for staff who wish to develop their experience and eventually become teaching assistants or take on a fuller role (not mandatory). This post involves working across 5 lunchtimes, 2-3 hours per day, 10-15 hours weekly between 11am and 2pm with opportunity for roles to become permanent and extended.

You will be a member of the team responsible for supporting young people during a period where other staff may be relieved for lunch breaks, whilst young people are having their lunch or taking part in educational and enrichment activities across the lunchtime period.

This vacancy offers a brilliant chance to dip your toe into the sector and experience life within SEND around other commitments, pick ups, drop offs or another role.
