We are seeking to recruit a Learning Support Assistant to work at this 11‑18 selective academy school. Dr Challoner’s is a grammar school for boys, with a co‑educational Sixth Form. We have a long history of providing superb education to our students and, in 2024, Ofsted confirmed their 2019 judgement of Outstanding. All our support staff play a key role in enabling that to happen, by contributing to the forward‑thinking and innovative culture of the school.
The successful candidate will provide support for students with Special Educational Needs, working with students on a 1‑to‑1 basis or in a small group outside of the classroom. We particularly wish to provide support for students who have barriers to learning caused by Autistic Spectrum conditions, ADHD and other neurodiversities. Interest in and/or experience of working with young people with such needs would be an advantage, as would experience of supporting young people as they experience dysregulation.
