Creative Hub Support Assitant

As a Creative Hub Support Assistant, you will help students work on creative projects from start to finish. 

Here are some of your duties:

Get to know your students. Each student is different, so it's important to build relationships with them and their support workers. This will help you provide the best possible support.

Work with others to create a plan for each student. You will work with support workers, teachers, pastoral managers, parents, and professional services to develop an individual learning plan (ILP) for each student. This plan will outline the student's goals and how you will help them achieve them.

Help students document their work. You will help students keep a record of their activities and experiences in an online blog. This will help them reflect on their progress and share their work with others.

Support students with physical needs. Students with specific physical requirements will be supported by an appropriately trained support worker. However, you should be aware of any physical needs or limitations and take them into account when planning projects and engaging with the student.

Support students with social needs. You will create a safe and supportive environment for students. You will also encourage them to engage with others, such as client schools, support workers, parents, carers, other students, and interested parties.

Support students with emotional needs. You will help students identify and manage their emotions. You will also be empathetic to their individual challenges and considerate of their history.

Support students with developmental needs. You will also help them develop their skills and learn new things.

Creative Hub volunteers should be open to learning new things. They also need to be okay with making mistakes and failing, as this is part of the learning process. 

In short, Creative Hub volunteers need to be lifelong learners.
