We are looking to appoint a Higher Level Learning Support Assistant from February 2023 to work with the Head of Education & Training to co-ordinate and administer the work of the rapidly growing team of LSWs. Your main responsibilities will be:
- to provide support in lessons and activities across curriculum.
- to guide less experienced LSWs’ work in the classroom and lead training and CPD for other LSWs;
- to take the lead for developing one or more areas of expertise within the wider team (for example, communication, essential skills or student voice); and
- to lead sessions and cover for colleagues as required, ensuring the progress of small groups of learners in a range of areas.
Previous experience of management roles within education is not essential. However, to be successful in this post you will possess excellent inter-personal skills, and will be an effective communicator with the ability to organise, lead and motivate a team.
