About the school
John Chilton School is a successful school for pupils who have complex physical, medical and learning difficulties. We are innovative in our approach to educate pupils with a range of cognitive, physical and medical needs (4 to 19 years) in a unique environment. The school has two sites colocated with mainstream academies. The post holder will be expected to work across both sites.
We aim for our pupils to become confident, independent and motivated members of the community.
The job includes working under the supervision of the Learning Mentor, to work with individuals and groups of pupils to deliver nurture-based SEMH interventions, following plans already in place or created in conjunction with colleagues, with support as required; creating and maintaining a purposeful, orderly and supportive nurture-based learning and play environment, with guidance as required
