A Warrington SEMH school is in need of a Social, Emotional Mental Health Teaching Assistant who has experience supporting children/young adults with Mental Health difficulties. This Ofsted-rated 'Good' Special School caters for young people between the ages of 8 and 16.

There's an emphasis on emotional growth, promoting security, routines, clear boundaries and carefully planned, repetitive learning opportunities.
