I joined Vranch House School in 2005 as a lunch-time support assistant, helped in hydrotherapy and ran a crèche. In 2010 I became a Teaching Assistant and gained a level 3 diploma in Children & Young People Workforce. I have always been interested in visual impairment and have done a little training in this as well as doing a small group session each week. I have worked in all 3 classes and learnt so much about the children, no two days were the same.
Following this I became a Therapy & Learning Assistant which meant I worked in the class as per normal but also acted as a go-between the Therapy and Class ensuring the children had the postural management they needed.
In September 2018 I joined the therapy team as a therapy assistant. I do lots of different tasks from assisting in speech and language therapy, hydro, work in the classes, rebound, innowalk, etc. as required. This is a completely different role and I am enjoying this new challenge.
