Coed Glas Primary school requires three excellent, experienced, kind and caring TAs to work with pupils with Additional Learning Needs in our new SRB for children with social communication difficulties and Autism that opened in September 2024.
The pupils are looking for energetic, caring adults who can support them in developing their social skills, with their learning in the SRB and in the classroom, and to help and encourage them when managing their emotions. This post would suit flexible, trained adults who show patience and understanding, and who have successful experience across the primary age and in particular, experience supporting children with Autism.
The successful candidates will have experience of delivering high quality support to children with ALN, particularly children with social communication difficulties and Autism.
Being a team player is vital in these roles as is excellent communication. Applicants should be able to manage resourcing and keeping records as well as having a creative flair to engage children.
Coed Glas Primary prides itself on developing the whole child and putting wellbeing at the centre of school life. We take a PACE (Playfulness, Acceptance, Curiosity, Empathy) and Restorative Justice approach to supporting children and the successful candidate will show an understanding and willingness to work within our school philosophy.
Coed Glas Primary School is committed to safeguarding our children, staff and families. Applicants will be subject to Safer Recruitment Practises and successful applicants will be required to apply for an enhanced DBS check.
Under the Education (Wales) Act 2014, all School Learning Support Workers must be registered with the Education Workforce Council (EWC).
We would welcome visits from interested candidates - please contact the school office to arrange a suitable time.
