A fantastic SEN school near Newbury are searching for an SEN Mentor to work on a 1:1 basis and group basis with students with special educational needs. The school are looking for someone who can start ASAP who can stay long-term until at least July 2024.

You will be supporting students aged 3 to 18 with a range of needs - Autism, ADHD, Down syndrome, behavioural challenges, sensory issues, physical disabilities and communication difficulties to name a few. As a valued member of staff, you will be supporting the team in dealing with situations ranging from behaviour/well-being situations and emotional regulation. You will also be working closely with the SENCo and class teachers to ensure each student is completing their learning objectives and are supported mentally, emotionally and academically.
