A third of children enter school ‘not school ready’, so your role will be key in helping them develop the skills, confidence, and independence they need to succeed as they progress through school.
You’ll need to be proactive, creative, and flexible, as this role is hands-on and requires a mix of support both in and out of the classroom. Whether it’s supporting children with their academic development, social and emotional growth, or personal care, you’ll play a key role in helping every child achieve their best.
Key Responsibilities:

- Promote positive interaction and support children in developing essential social and emotional skills.

- Strong communication skills and the ability to build positive relationships with children, staff, and parents.
- Ability to follow directions and work as part of a team, but also confident in using your initiative.
- A willingness and experience to assist with personal care tasks where necessary.
