ARB Teaching Assistant - Bude Primary Academy - Juniors

An ARB is an Area or Additional Resource Base for children with a range of individual needs as detailed in their Education, Health and Care Plans. No day is ever the same in Poppy Class, we all learn something new with and from one another. We have a superb team of experienced staff and equally amazing pupils and together we enjoy a wide range of learning experiences.

We have 10 pupils and although the ARB IS based within the Junior school, our pupils range from Early Years to Year 6. All have a wide range of complex additional needs including autism, speech language and communication needs (including being non- verbal and having English as an additional language), general developmental delays and physical and medical needs including epilepsy, need to hoist and being tube fed.Intimate care is also required by a number of our pupils. (Training will be provided as appropriate)

Lunchtime and breaktime supervision will all be a requirement of this role.

We welcome applications from those who are pro-active and flexible in their working practice as well as those able to ‘think-on-their-feet’ in what are often very challenging circumstances. This role is permanent (subject to our standard 6-month probationary period) and is for 21 hours per week. This could potentially take the form, for example, of 5 mornings or 3 days of 8:45am-3:15pm (30 minutes lunch) and one of 12:15pm-3:15pm. This is all pending operational need and in negotiation with the successful candidate.
