Hours: Full Time
A welcoming primary school in Wandsworth Town is seeking a dedicated and supportive Learning Support Assistant to join the Year 3 team on a full-time, short-term basis, starting ASAP.
The Learning Support Assistant will provide dedicated support to a Year 3 pupil who has ADHD and will play an important role in helping the child remain engaged, focused, and confident throughout the school day.
