Eden Brown are looking for a reliable, discreet and supportive 1:1 Learning Support Assistant / Note Taker to work with an academically able male A-Level student who is a wheelchair user.
The student is fiercely independent, motivated and keen to manage as much as possible himself. The role is therefore about providing practical support where needed, while allowing him to maintain his independence, confidence and focus on his studies.
The role will involve:
* In-class note-taking: Providing 1:1 note-taking support during lessons, ensuring the student has accurate and clear notes without disrupting his learning or independence.
* Practical physical support: Helping with tasks such as getting books, equipment and other items out of his bag when required.
* Personal care support: Assisting with transfers from his wheelchair to the toilet and helping him pull his trousers down. He is otherwise independent with his personal care, so no assistance with wiping or other intimate care is required.
About you
We are looking for someone who is:
* Patient, reliable and approachable.
* Discreet and respectful, with an understanding of the importance of dignity and independence.
* Organised, with good written communication and note-taking skills.
* Comfortable providing practical physical and personal care support when needed.
* Able to work sensitively alongside a bright, independent student, recognising when to step in and when to give him space.
This is a rewarding opportunity to support an ambitious A-Level student in accessing his education and achieving his academic potential.
The college would like someone in for a handover in December, the role will run until June 2027.
A DBS is also needed for this role.
