wealth of experience working with children and young people with special educational needs.
| I have worked as a teaching assistant, EMAG assistant, set up and invigilated exams, been part of the WRL team which included setting up and monitoring Work Experience placements for Year 10 and Year 11 students and supported international trips. I have been the ‘Quiet Room’ Coordinator. This position involves offering students who are experiencing difficulties within the classroom a structured place where they can come to calm down or feel ready to continue their learning in a more appropriate manner. The time offered depends on the student’s need at any particular time. Students who are on an internal exclusion will also come to the Quiet Room. This can be at any time up to a week. As I have the higher level teaching assistant qualification, it allows me to run this room with the support of another TA (no teacher). I am now employed as an HLTA where I cover classes for Teachers who for different reasons cannot be in class. I teach lesson such as skills classes for year 11 students who need extra support with basic skills in everyday activities,( this entails taking students off-site to support with learning everyday skills), PSCE in year 7. I'm at present a form tutor to a class of 12/13-year-old boys.

Hi! My name is Emma. I'm 24 years old and work at a school for kids with autism.
| Hi! My name is Emma and I work at a therapy school for children with autism. We're on Easter break for the next two weeks and I'd like to use my holiday time to help out a family whose parents are key workers or anyone who needs a nanny during this Covid-19 outbreak. After Easter break we will most likely still be working from home so I would still be able to provide care part or full time depending on the hours. I work for one other family at the moment but other than that I am practicing social isolation and traveling everywhere via bicycle. I have 15 years of experience working with children and babies ages newborn to 13 years. I have worked in schools, summer camps, daycares and homes. I have 4 years of experience working with children and teenagers with special needs including ASD, ADHD, ODD, cerebral palsy, learning disabilities, etc. I would be happy to provide a CV and references. I have a recent DBS.

My heart is truly invested in providing them with the support, patience, and encouragement they need to thrive. Whether it's creating individualized activities, implementing sensory strategies, or simply lending a listening ear, I am committed to ensuring that every child, regardless of their abilities, feels valued, understood, and included in all aspects of their care and development. My experience as a teacher assistant has not only honed my skills in meeting the diverse needs of SEN children but has also deepened my appreciation for the joy and fulfillment that comes from making a positive difference in their lives.
