Cross Gates Primary is delighted to be

working in partnership with the East Area Inclusion Partnership (EAIP) to offer

a commissioned service to pupils from other primary schools within the East of

Leeds.

In January 2025, we launched a

therapeutic intervention for children whose primary need are Speech, Language

and Communication and Social and Emotional Mental Health (SEMH). Our therapeutic intervention space offers a

tailored curriculum and bespoke learning packages with a range of approaches and

strategies to support some of the most vulnerable learners.

We are looking for someone who, under

the direction of the SENDCO and the Speech and Language HLTA based at Cross

Gates Primary, will support on the delivery of the interventions needed to

ensure the small group of children thrive. Experience of working with children

with complex speech, language and communication and SEMH needs are essential

for this unique role, alongside a caring attitude

and resilient approach to supporting their needs whilst tackling their barriers

to learning. An

understanding of the Early Years Foundation Stage Framework is desirable.

Cross Gates Primary School is committed to

safeguarding and promoting the welfare of its pupils and expects all staff and

volunteers to share this commitment. We promote diversity and want a workforce

that reflects the population of Leeds.

Further details are available upon request and

visits to the school are welcome. Please
