Bookings may include general classroom support, one-to-one SEND assistance, intervention work or additional help during particularly busy periods.

No two days will be identical. You might help Reception pupils settle into morning routines, support phonics in Year 1 or guide a small group through a Year 6 mathematics task.

• The right to work in the UK
  
• An Enhanced DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to apply
