Summary

I enjoy working with others and am a reliable team player. I can happily work alone; implementing activities linked to a curriculum or area of interest. It is rewarding being able to motivate and to build a rapport with young people, work with them on their level and share the joy of their achievements.

In my current role as a teaching assistant at Mountjoy school, I support within a key stage 4 class. My role is varied; from classroom support and one to one interventions; SALT, physio and occupational therapy.

I regularly work alongside our speech and language therapist to ensure inclusive resources and communication aids are in place for all pupils curriculum wide. I am also involved with student assessments and outcome reporting on our Steps for Life framework.
