Learning Support Assistant – Wokingham
Year 6 | EOTAS Provision | 1:1 SEND Support | Flexible Hours
Are you an experienced Learning Support Assistant who is passionate about helping children with SEND thrive?
Quantum Scholars is looking for a dedicated and compassionate Learning Support Assistant to provide 1:1 support to a Year 6 pupil in Wokingham who is currently accessing Education Otherwise Than At School (EOTAS) provision.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys building genuine relationships with young people and understands that progress isn’t always about what happens in a classroom. You’ll play an important role in helping a young person feel comfortable, supported and confident in their learning environment.
About The Role
You will provide individualised 1:1 learning support to a Year 6 pupil with Autism (ASD) and Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA).
The role will involve working from the pupil’s home in Wokingham, providing a calm, consistent and supportive environment where the pupil can engage with their education at their own pace.
