The PI Additionally Resourced Provision is part of a range of provisions providing additional support for children in mainstream schools. These specialist provisions form one of three strands of support for children with: Complex Communication and Interaction Needs, Sensory Impairments and Physical Impairments.  

This role is required to work as part of a specialist team including teachers, support staff and a range of other professionals to support the learning and welfare of targeted children and, where appropriate, ensure smooth transition to their designated local school. The role includes assessing need, providing learning and educational activities, developing skills, supporting integration and transition, securing children’s physical and emotional wellbeing, whilst raising self-esteem and encouraging independence. 

This role will involve a combination of support on a one to one and small group basis, either in or out of the classroom or additional resource provision base. It also involves working with staff from other schools in order to prepare them to fully meet the needs of the children in their local mainstream school. The post involves working in partnership with parents/carers and families in order to build confidence and trust.
