Join a Brand-New Alternative Provision in Newport:
We are recruiting SEMH Teaching Assistants to join an exciting new independent specialist provision opening in Newport.
Working in partnership with the local community and supported by strong links with the Gwent Dragons, this innovative setting has been created to support young people aged 11-14 who are currently unable to access mainstream education due to trauma, SEMH needs and other ALN/SEND.
This provision is intentionally small, allowing staff to build meaningful relationships and deliver truly personalised support. The school will also have access to its own clinical therapy team and will combine trauma-informed practice with innovative learning approaches to help young people re-engage with education and thrive.
