ACE Schools Plymouth is a successful educational establishment, delivering the national curriculum, GCSE's and vocational courses, for students who have become disengaged from mainstream school.

It is intended that some of these students will move on to more permanent education placements, where appropriate, after a period of time within ACE Schools.

We are looking for a teaching assistant, on a part time basis, to provide support for students in their learning at one of our bases. You will be required to work within key stage 3 and 4 and have experience of dealing with pupils with a wide range of behaviour and SEN needs, together with the ability to work on own initiative as well as part of a wider team.

You will be required to undertake CPI training as part of your induction and essential qualification and person requirements should be met as per role profile.

If you have good communication skills, an understanding and capacity to manage young people with learning and behavioural difficulties, and the desire to help make a difference to young people's lives, then we would like to hear from you.
