Reboot Education Limited An Alternative Education Provision.

The role of Student Support Assistant plays an important role in supporting our students in re-engaging them in learning and building their self-confidence. You will be supporting students whilst they complete their learning delivering interventions either one-to-one or in small groups.

The main responsibilities for the role will include:

• helping to prepare breakfast when the students arrive and preparing their lunch

• supporting students to access their learning

• delivering interventions on a 1:1 and small group basis.

You will need:

• to successfully pass an enhanced DBS check with no disclosures on it

• to have experience of working with students either Key Stages 2 3 or 4

• experience of working with students with social emotional and behavioural difficulties

• a good level of English and Mathemtics skills and be competent at using ICT.

Reboot Education is an alternative education provision which opened its first base in Ipswich at the start of 2024. Demand for our service has increased greatly over the last two years which resulted in Reboot Education opening a second provision in Bury St. Edmunds in September 2025. In April 2026 we will be opening a larger provision in Ipswich in order to meet the demands for our service.

Our provisions are purposefully small and are set-up not to feel like a conventional school. We support up to 6 students per day in our Bury provision and from April up to 12 students per day in our Ipswich provision. Students attend our provision for 1 to 3 days per week and are usually struggling to maintain their mainstream school place.

We use a computing and technology-based curriculum to re-engage the students in learning and to help them rediscover their self-esteem and confidence.

This is a real opportunity to make a difference to the lives of students who are often most in need of people to believe in them. Each provision is staffed with at least 1 teacher and 2 to 3 members of support staff daily.

We will offer you:

• a competitive rate of pay

• a chance to help develop our innovative alternative education provision

• supportive and hands-on senior leaders

• a chance for you to thrive in an exciting role and the joy of seeing the young people you work with thrive!
