Perth, Western Australia Perth & Kinross Council Full time

**Job Overview**

We are seeking a dedicated and caring individual to join our team as an Early Years Support Assistant in various locations within the Perth & Kinross Council area.

**About the Role**

This is a supply role, providing support to children and young people with additional needs. As a Pupil Support Assistant, you will work closely with other team members to ensure these individuals receive the necessary assistance to access learning.

Children and young people may present with a range of needs, including social and emotional, learning, communication, physical, or personal care requirements. Your role will involve supporting positive behaviour management programs and individual support plans.

Perth & Kinross Council has implemented a Job Family Framework for all single-status posts. As a Pupil Support Assistant, you will be part of the Care and Learning Job Family, with a detailed role profile outlining typical behaviors, skills, and experience required.

**Key Requirements**

We are looking for individuals who can demonstrate:

  • A genuine interest in the development of children and their wellbeing.
  • Kindness, empathy, and patience.
  • An ability to engage with children and young people.
  • Confidentiality regarding children, young people, and their families.
  • Experience (paid/voluntary) of supporting children and young people with additional support needs in an Early Years Setting or Primary School.

Some roles require travel between settings, so an ability to travel is essential.

You will also need to commit to achieving the required qualification within the timescales set by the Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC).

**Benefits and What We Offer**

As a member of our team, you will have access to training and support for continued professional development. We also offer flexible working arrangements to help achieve a healthy work-life balance.

Perth & Kinross Council welcomes applications from former armed forces personnel/reservists, as many of the skills gained during military service can be transferred directly into a role with local government.

**Salary Information**

The salary for this role is estimated to be £ per hour, dependent on qualifications and experience.
