Educational Support Workers (ESWs)

What is an Educational Support Worker?

Educational Support Workers (ESWs) provide support to students that have applied for Reasonable Accommodations with the Disability Service to help them fulfil their academic potential. The supports required are determined by the students' Disability Officer as part of the needs assessment process. Working as an ESW is an excellent opportunity to undertake rewarding paid work that will look good on any C.V.

ESWs typically work a few hours each week, as required, and are primarily recruited internally from the Trinity Postgraduate community.
