We have an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic and committed Learning Support Assistant to join the ASD Resourced Provision at Simon Langton Grammar School for Boys.  We are looking for a committed individual to work under the guidance of the SENCO to assist in the educational and social development needs of students. 

The successful candidate will develop positive relationships with students, parents, staff and agencies to help support our students to reach their potential. They will need to be a motivated individual, who is both able to work independently as well as within a team. A friendly and positive approach to teaching and learning is necessary, with the ability to engage with and embrace a range of areas of specialism. 

The role allows for potential progression and will be an invaluable learning opportunity for those wishing to consider a role in teaching or advance in their educational career.
