Student Support Assistant

Do you love working in a school but need a change?

Are you excited by the thought of being part of something new where ideas are valued?

Do you want to have a positive impact on the lives of autistic children?​

Hope Tree School, just outside Cambridge, is one of only two schools for autistic girls in the country.​

We do things a little differently at Hope Tree. We are a small school with big aims. Our quiet rural surroundings are the backdrop to a learning environment where the wellbeing of our students is prioritised and the development of relationships is central to all we do; a genuine hybrid provision of both academic and therapeutic support. Our model provides consistency, predictability and flexibility to best meet the needs of our students, whilst also enabling them to develop confidence, independence and long term life skills. 

We are looking for passionate, enthusiastic part-time or full-time people who could take on a role of Student Support Assistant. Experience in supporting students with SEN is required.

If you would like the chance to join the experienced, supportive staff of a new, small school with ambitious plans please get in touch.
