We are friendly, welcoming and supportive and will look after your professional development and your mental wellbeing. We believe that colleagues should be treated with kindness and respect. This exciting role will be based in our intervention room, 'The Hive' and will be focused on supporting our children with significant and complex SEND (Special Educational Needs & Disability) needs. This includes children with social, communication & emotional needs. Some children have EHCP plans. We provide a personalised curriculum offer within our HIVE, with a high focus on using visuals to support communication. You will also be supporting some of these children for some of the day within their mainstream classes, as part of our inclusive strategy. You will work within this space as part of a team to support the Class Teacher. You will also have support from the SENDCo (Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator) and regular external agency support. We anticipate that, subject to appropriate checks, this role will commence in January 2025

Working for Birmingham City Council is more than just a job; it's about making life better for the 1 million plus people who live and work in the city., The Council is a fantastic place to work. You will find an organisation that is both challenging and supportive; with a leadership impatiently adventurous in its pursuit of excellence. There is a clear vision which is ensuring that the Council is working for communities today and building for tomorrow, we focus our resources on five key priorities:

• A Prosperous Birmingham: through a focus on inclusive economic growth, tackling unemployment, attracting inward investment, and maximising the benefits of the Commonwealth Games.
• An Inclusive Birmingham: through a focus on tackling poverty and inequality, empowering citizens, promoting diversity and civic pride, and supporting and enabling all children and young people to thrive.
• A Safe Birmingham: through a focus on making the city safer, safeguarding vulnerable citizens, increasing affordable housing, and tackling homelessness.
