About the Role

Hare Street Community Primary School is looking to appoint two enthusiastic and caring SEND Learning Support Assistants to join our inclusive and friendly team.

We welcome applications from individuals who can demonstrate:

· Relevant experience supporting children with SEND in a school or childcare setting (voluntary or paid)
