We are looking for someone who is dedicated and skilled and has a genuine passion for working with EYFS children with SEN.

They must also have previous experience of working in an EYFS setting with children who have SEND and have proven experience working with children with communication and interaction needs. They must be strong team players and will need to be effective communicators as the role entails working closely with parents and outside agencies as well as other staff members and children. It is essential that they can follow and adapt planning to individual need, assess outcomes and acknowledge next steps in partnership with the class teacher.
