JOB TITLE: Learning Support Assistant

LOCATION: Kingsley, Hampshire

REPORTING TO: Head of School

We are seeking a Learning Support Assistant to join our highly dedicated team at our Outstanding farm-based alternative provision.

The Green Room Kingsley, or GRK as it is known, is an independent farm based school providing a second chance at education for up to 40 young people aged 11-18, who have, for various reasons, found it difficult to learn in mainstream education. They all have Education Health Care Plans indicating a variety of needs, including support for their ASD, ADHD, ODD, PDA and/or SEMH difficulties. Our highly dedicated team provides a broad, lively, and stimulating curriculum for our pupils ranging from English, Maths, Science and other academic subjects to vocational studies including BTEC Land Based Studies and Construction. We offer a wide variety of sport, PSHE and land based activities including looking after our many animals.  In addition we focus on inspiring change within our pupils to ensure their successful future. Classes can be taught in our purpose built classroom building or a wide range of other indoor and outdoor environments including our Bushcraft Area, Market garden, Arctic Cabin, Animal Enclosures and the rest of the beautiful 120 acre site.  Our pupils want to be at GRK, it is not a place they are ‘sent’. This is crucial to the culture and success of the school.

Due to the nature of our pupils, this role would ideally suit someone who really wants to make a difference to young people’s lives; someone who wants to help them reach their potential by giving them a second chance; someone who is humble yet confident, enthusiastic yet understands the need for boundaries, and energetic yet calm. Our success is built on outstanding staff/pupil relationships and creating a safe environment for our pupils to thrive. Experience is useful but your patience, work ethic and love of our ethos is even more important to us. If you’d like to help our pupils overcome their issues to achieve great things please apply.
