Successful psychology graduates will specialise in working with students who have complex spectrum based needs. The students you are raising attainment with are between the ages of 5-16, all have EHCPs and will need to continue their education once they leave the school.

• Start date: September 2021.

• 1:1, small group, intensive interventions and an LSA as part of a wider class - diverse role and diverse range of students.
