The posting

Our Personal Support Assistants are a key part of the support team at Severndale, enabling our learners’ personal care needs to be met in a compassionate, hygienic and dignified way, so that they are clean, comfortable, happy and ready to learn in their classrooms. We want our learners to be as independent as possible, working to toilet train where their needs allow. Our PSAs are part of a team, who work together effectively to provide care across the academy, with each PSA usually allocated to a small number of classes, often working with a partner, managed by our Lead PSA.

The successful candidate will effectively support the personal care needs of pupils, with 25 hours worked from 09:30 to 14:30. Although we are currently recruiting aimed at Monkmoor campus, you may be expected to work at either Monkmoor (Shrewsbury) or Futures (Shrewsbury College, London Road) depending on the needs of learners.

As part of the Pupil Support Assistant role over lunchtimes you will assist pupils with play, welfare and feeding of an individual or small group of pupils. This will involve accessing training to support learners with different eating and drinking needs.

Skills required:

  • Ability to build good relationships with children, staff and parents
  • Excellent verbal communication
  • Excellent listening skills
  • Organisational skills
  • Positive whilst working under pressure
  • Ability to effectively use manual handling techniques including hoisting (when trained).

You should be an energetic, enthusiastic and committed professional who is flexible and reliable and able to work on your own initiative, with the ability to establish effective working relationships at all levels, particularly as a member of a team. You should have the relevant skills and personal qualities such as being dynamic and proactive to undertake the range of duties and the ability to work accurately and consistently.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
