Behaviour Teaching Assistant (Creative Media Background) Islington £117-£120 per day Full-Time Term-Time Only Long-Term In a creative school, students express themselves in many ways - through film, digital media, music, design, and sometimes through behaviour when emotions feel too big to manage. Some young people walk into school carrying more than their equipment or ideas. They carry pressure, frustration, or experiences that don't always have an easy outlet. What can look like "challenging behaviour" is often a form of communication.

If this sounds like something you'd thrive in, we'd love to hear from you
