Early intervention classes are available for children aged 3-5 years with autism spectrum disorder. Early intervention classes follow the Junior/Senior Infant Day i.e. 4 hours 40 minutes each day. Early intervention classes are intended to provide early support for children with ASD before they start school. We strive to create an inclusive, respectful and happy environment in which all children will be enabled to reach their full potential. We are seeking a dynamic, enthusiastic suitably qualified teacher who has a passion for working with children with additional needs. Previous work with children with Autism is desirable. A qualification in special education is desirable. The main criterion is a willingness and openness to work in the special class and to play an integral role in delivering a fruitful learning experience for all the children.
Applications by post only to arrive by no later than 1 pm on the closing date. Please enclose three copies of the application letter and application form and write ' Early Intervention Special Class Teacher Application' on the envelope.
