You will provide support in lessons, identifying causes and triggers of pupil problems and working on strategies to support individual pupils. Providing 1:1 support and mentoring small groups of pupils will be the main basis of the role. As a pastoral support assistant you will liaise with parents, carers, teachers and colleagues in order to establish support plans to best help students throughout their academic year.
