The role is not the traditional in class support; every day will be different. The coaching approach enables our students to receive the highest quality, personalised intervention. You will develop a positive working relationship with your allocated students, enabling you to plan the best support for their academic and social progress. This could involve adjusting activities, daily check-ins, suggesting supporting strategies for staff, 1:1 interventions or other strategies.
We are looking for someone who is enthusiastic and positive in their outlook, who is dedicated to supporting students in school and willing to work hard. The candidate should be empathetic yet firm, displays patience an calmness and is committed to understanding and supporting the student’s needs.
If you are thinking of a return to work, or if you are considering teaching as a future career this would be a fantastic opportunity to work in a supportive school and gain some valuable experience. The school actively encourages applicants from a range of backgrounds and is proud of the diversity of the staff.
The Blue Coat School, Basingstoke is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
