Why this role matters
Some pupils need more than a lesson plan to thrive - they need someone who notices when theyre overwhelmed, understands when words fail and celebrates the small wins others might miss.
What youll be doing
As a SEN Teaching Assistant, youll be providing 1:1 or small group support for pupils with additional needs. Youll adapt learning activities, help manage behaviour, and provide calm, structured support during the school day.
You'll help with:
- Supporting learning objectives tailored to individual targets
- Preparing resources like visual timetables, communication tools, or sensory materials
- Spotting early signs of anxiety or dysregulation and responding calmly
- Recording progress and behaviour and feeding back to the teacher or SENDCo
- Promoting independence, confidence and participation
What were looking for
- Experience working with children or young people, especially those with additional needs
- Patience, empathy and a calm, confident approach
- A relevant TA or SEND qualification is great, but not essential if you have the right mindset and experience
- Enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or willingness to apply)
- A good working knowledge of safeguarding (or willingness to complete training with us)
What youll get in return
- Flexibility choose your working days and take school holidays off
- Variety work across different schools, year groups and with pupils with a range of needs
- Support your own Account Manager whos just a call or message away
- Training access to free CPD including behaviour, autism awareness, and Team-Teach
- Weekly pay clear, consistent rates with no umbrella deductions
