SEN Teaching Assistant - Nurture Education Make a Difference Every Day Do you want to change lives while building a rewarding and meaningful career? We are looking for compassionate and dedicated Teaching Assistants to join our growing education team. As a Teaching Assistant at our site, you will have the chance to be part of a truly special community focused on nurture and growth. What the Role Involves A Teaching Assistant role here is very different from a mainstream position. You will be working with students aged 5-19 who have severe social communication difficulties, complex learning disabilities, and often challenging behaviors. Teaching Assistant duties include supporting core subjects like literacy, numeracy, and PSHE. The Teaching Assistant helps students access therapy-based education and develop essential life skills. As a Teaching Assistant , you will support students in groups of 8-13, organized by ability rather than age. Every Teaching Assistant helps students communicate through a multi-sensory approach using Makaton, signs, or symbols. Personal Care: Some students require personal care, and you must be prepared to provide this assistance to ensure they stay clean and comfortable. Full training for these tasks will be provided. Training and Progression At our school, learning never stops for our staff. All Teaching Assistants take part in a twice-weekly training programme combining theory and practical sessions. This leads to a Teaching Assistant apprenticeship qualification, which is fully funded. After two years and completing your apprenticeship, you can progress to the role of Senior Teaching Assistant .
