The school

Following its inception in Nov 2016, This Trust has set out to create an outstanding educational pathway for pupils with social, emotional, and mental health related issues. Any pupil who joins the Trust (at any time) will experience teaching, support, care, and experiences that allow them to flourish, and achieve way beyond what previous expectations may have been for them. They can take pride in their membership of such a journey. The Trust recognises the incredibly challenging circumstances that many pupils are in when they arrive and via quality teaching, care, and support, we can proudly say that we change lives.

Our structure is such that we can offer a pathway for special educational needs that can incorporate primary and secondary ages, a range of needs including autism, and a broad spectrum of provision that enables change, and re-engagement with education and success that has never been experienced before. We can succeed, where due to a range of issues, other placements have failed.

Overall, we aim to be the best type of this provision in the country.

This School is a dynamic, exciting, and progressive secondary special school with an innovative and constantly evolving curriculum for boys with social, emotional, and mental health related difficulties. The school had an Ofsted inspection in June 2024 which was graded GOOD in all areas.

The Role

*

Due to our continued and planned growth of the Trust, applications are invited for the position of Teaching Assistant (TA)/ Student Support Staff to start from November 2024

*

Good behaviour management skills, either whole class or with individual pupils is a key part of the role. Whilst training is available, experience of working with children in some capacity is advantageous. The ability to remain positive with pupils who may exhibit challenging and demanding behaviour, the ability to work with pupils to develop their social skills, follow school policies and maintain a sense of humour are all essential.

*

Student Support staff play a crucial role in Brandles School. There are three Student Support Staff working as a team. The majority of their time is spent assisting with students that need a different approach to the learning environment and often working one to one with a student. Building a supportive relationship is the key to success for both student and Student Support Staff.

*

Students that require support from Student Support Staff often display challenging behaviours so the role requires people with patience and resilience and every day is seen as a new day with students.

*

Ideally candidates are sought with experience of working with pupils with social, emotional and mental health related difficulties in a mainstream or Special School environment.

*

However, as already noted you may have been working with children in a different setting. You would be required to undertake a number of duties supporting pupils, which may include:

*

Withdrawal work and ‘one to one’ for pupil progression;

*

Whole class assistance working with a teacher;

*

Behaviour management of individual pupils and classes of pupils - training will be provided.

*

You may have particular skills and a passion for developing certain areas of support within a particular subject area. If this is the case, this would be explored with you.

*

All staff are trained in the use of Hertfordshire Steps as a behaviour management system.

*

Candidates must have the ability to be flexible on a day-to-day basis.
