63%
47.6/ 100
1 Share of the Freinet school teacher role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the special educational needs assistant profile. Required skills count in full, supplementary skills at 0.35. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. 2 Combines what is missing with how specialised it is, so a gap of general skills scores easier than the same number of narrow ones.
Why this move works
A Freinet school teacher role treats 22 of its required skills as things a special educational needs assistant already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- assess students
- assess the development of youth
- assist children in developing personal skills
- assist students in their learning
- assist students with equipment
- curriculum objectives
What stands in the way is 11 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 30 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A Freinet school teacher role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a special educational needs assistant background worth leading with.
- already held organise creative performance management skills
- already held social development health and welfare
- already held common children's diseases health and welfare
- already held assist children in developing personal skills assisting and caring
- already held implement care programmes for children assisting and caring
- already held attend to children's basic physical needs assisting and caring
All 30 carried skills, including the 22 the Freinet school teacher role treats as required.

How this record was compiled
Both occupations are taken from ESCO, which lists the skills and knowledge each occupation is expected to have and marks every one required or optional. Nothing here is a prediction about hiring, and nothing here knows that a particular employer wants a particular certificate. Treat Table 3 as a starting point for your own research rather than a syllabus. The full method states what these figures can and cannot tell you.
