Summary
Seven Stars Primary School are looking to employ a high-quality Higher Level Teaching Assistant to work alongside our SENCo and Assistant SENCo to develop a bespoke provision for children with Education Health Care Plans with complex needs.
The role will involve the administration, planning, delivery of curriculum, policy development and management of the intervention and provision in liaison with the SENCo, Senior Leaders and teachers. This is a role that will require a degree of flexibility due to the nature of the pupils and the ongoing evolution of the intervention within the structure of the school and the need to meet complex needs within the existing capacity of the school. It will require some management and leadership of TA2 staff with the support of the SENCo and SEND manager.
The number of pupils being worked with will be small given the complexity of need (usually 5 to 6 pupils)
Seven Stars Primary School is a happy and successful school, ‘where children come first.’ Candidates need to have high expectations and be able to deliver excellent teaching and learning opportunities with a specific ability to support pupils with Special Educational Needs. The school will provide an effective team of colleagues to support and further develop the successful candidate professionally.
A general job description, person specification and application form are available on the school website or you can contact the head teacher at head@seven-stars.lancs.sch.uk
