Bring relevant experience, qualifications (Cert III or Cert IV in School Based Education Support or equivalent), Child Safety Checks, and a passion for working with students to make a positive impact in the classroom.
Support teachers in understanding the unique needs of students with Language Disorders and co-occurring difficulties, helping to adapt teaching methods to support their learning journey.

Assist in delivering outstanding educational experiences by creatively supporting lesson plans and activities that cater to each student's unique needs.
Collaborate with teachers to implement programs and strategies that address the diverse educational requirements of our students.
Work as part of a multidisciplinary team, contributing to innovative and adaptive ways of learning that benefit all students.
