This role is ideal for a psychology graduate interested in gaining hands-on experience supporting children with special educational needs before pursuing a career in educational psychology, clinical psychology, speech and language therapy, or teaching.
You will work closely with class teachers and specialist staff to provide tailored support to pupils with a range of additional needs, helping them engage confidently in their learning and development.
