EHCP Milestone Advocacy: Collaborate with the Class Teacher to track and record daily progress toward Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) targets
Safe Haven Creation: Maintain a structured, predictable environment where students feel secure

Requirements:

Emotional Resilience
A Learner's Mindset
