SEN TA required for Cape Cornwall's Kite's ARB unit.
Kites is an Area Base Resource that helps children with special educational needs thrive. In Kites, classes are small. There are at most 11 students in each class with a high teacher/student ratio. So children have lots of 1:1 support.
At Cape, Kites children get the learning help they need – whilst enjoying mainstream school activities often as possible. So, students who are able to study GCSE’s will join their peers in mainstream lessons. Here they learn from our subject teachers, with the support of our teaching assistants.
Mainstream teachers also deliver some subject-specific lessons within Kites or mainstream classrooms. For example, if children need to use specialist equipment and facilities e.g. DT.
Where the GCSE curriculum is not suitable, learners study alternative qualifications. These include English, Maths, Home Cooking skills and ASDAN courses.
Personal development is vital. These include the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award, Be Inspired, drama, art and physical wellbeing.

Can I take breaks?
Staff breaks are to be taken at appropriate times when the leader is able to cover the key worker. They should be for a limited time up to 15 minutes maximum and up to 2 breaks per shift. Leaders have to make a dynamic risk assessment when it is safe and staff should understand if the situation would not be safe, they would forgo a break at that time.
Can I leave the service user alone if needed?
The young person you are key-working should remain in line of sight at all times. If there is a need to leave the room, you should notify another member of staff and they should provide consent that they have the capacity to oversee your key-child until your return.
