Axcis are working with a new alternative provision supporting both primary and secondary pupils who are school refusers/ leavers due to anxiety, learning needs or trauma. The provision mentors’ students on a 1-1 basis either in their homes, community or in the learning hub in Exeter. The provision is needing several teaching assistants to support both the Teacher and student on a 2-1 basis. Not all referrals need teaching assistants. This is a new requirement for the provision to support students who are either very vulnerable, have a risk assessment or in social services. You could be asked to work one or two shifts a week, either from 10 – 3 or 9.00 – 1:00. The times do vary on the child’s timetable. A driver is desirable but not essential and expenses and travel are paid for. We pay an hourly rate of £13 - £16.
