Our vision gives shape to how we work together to support students as they Learn, Be, Create and Collaborate. Our contemporary, research-based curriculum model encourages students to fully participate in their learning and challenge themselves to demonstrate skills and understandings in new contexts. With a focus on a positive behaviour learning approach to develop students' emotional strength, empathy, personal resilience and ownership of behaviour, we encourage students to be interdependent, thoughtful young people.
About The Role
The Classroom Support Assistant plays a key role in creating an inclusive and nurturing learning environment by partnering with teachers to support student participation, especially those with diverse learning needs. This position involves providing targeted support to individuals and small groups, modifying learning tasks, and encouraging the use of strategies that enhance students’ confidence, independence, and social-emotional development. The Classroom Support Assistant works closely with teachers and specialist teams to implement personalised adjustments that help students reach their academic potential and actively engage in the wider school community.
