• Experience teaching or supporting learners with additional needs
• Strong communication and classroom management skills
• A patient, flexible and learner-focused approach

Desirable (but not essential):

• Experience of entry-level or pre-entry delivery
• Understanding of EHCPs and person-centred approaches

If you're ready to help foundation learners build confidence, skills and independence, we'd love to hear from you.
