• Ensures that all our young people  receive individual and personalised learning and support.
• Will provide up to 26 pupil places at a temporary site in Upton Cross Primary School in Newham. When opened at its new, permanent site on Royal Road in Oct 2024 the school will have a capacity of 105 pupils.

The Role of a Positive Behaviour Support TA

The role would be to support the learning of all students across all ages who have significant learning difficulties, physical needs and, at times, challenging behaviours.
