Key Responsibilities:
• Provide tailored support to students with challenging behaviours, helping them to engage with the curriculum.
• Implement and contribute to individual behaviour plans (IBPs) in collaboration with the SENCO.
• Use de-escalation techniques to manage and diffuse potentially disruptive situations.
• Foster positive relationships with students, encouraging their confidence, independence, and social skills.
