Stockport School · Stockport, North West
We are seeking to appoint an
outstanding practitioner to the post of SEND – Transition Group HLTA.
The successful candidate will be a dedicated
and committed professional who under the line management of the SENCO, will
be responsible for developing and maintaining effective connections,
collaboration and communications between the workings of the SEND department,
Pastoral and Attendance teams, and our Curriculum/Subject teams.
The SEND – Transition Group HLTA
will be expected to maintain effective and proactive contact with the
SENCO, Transition Group Teaching Staff, and the Pastoral Head of Year, to
discuss evolving change and plan to meet the needs of individuals within the
Transition Group.
The SEND – Transition Group HLTA
will also be expected to liaise with Heads of Core Curriculum/Subject
departments upon a regular basis to share feedback and to understand how and
where SEND support within the Transition Group may be needed to help support
with students in those Curriculum/Subject areas during future weeks.
The SEND – Transition Group HLTA will also work closely
in conjunction with the Student Support Hub Manager to ensure that students
with complex needs are receiving the bespoke support that they require, and
that the Support Hub provision is being used effectively to supplement student
needs.
In addition to the principle focus of enhancing in-class
timetabled support of students and of improved collaboration and communication
between SEND, Pastoral and Attendance, and Curriculum/Subject areas, the SEND –
Transition Group HLTA will also provide a range of specific and bespoke
interventions for students aimed at developing their independence skills. The

this, running in addition and complementary to their timetabled support of
students.
