• Discuss strategies to manage anxiety.
• Identify barriers to learning and create tailored solutions.
• Design co‑curricular activities to make learning more engaging (e.g., linking literacy tasks to their personal interests).
• Help learners develop skills to transition into education, training, and employment.
• Provide one or two days per week of classroom‑based teaching assistant support.
• Work primarily in outreach across Kettering, Corby and Wellingborough. A driver’s licence is required and mileage will be paid.
