What Makes a Candidate Stand Out?
- Punctual & Reliable: Arriving on time and ready to start the day with a positive attitude.

- Qualifications: Level 2 or 3 TA qualifications are a plus, but the right attitude and a passion for SEND are what truly matter.
- Compliance: You must hold an Enhanced DBS on the update service or be willing to apply for a new one.
