We are seeking a professional, enthusiastic and reliable team member to provide 1 to 1 support for a Year 6 pupil.

It will be essential to work closely with teachers, learning development staff and the child’s parents in following specialist recommendations.
Would suit an experienced or newly qualified Level 5 HADC (Helen Arkell Dyslexia Centre) teacher but we welcome enquiries from all dyslexia-trained candidates.
