Reeson Education is currently supporting a warm, inclusive 1-form entry primary school in Southfields (SW19) that is looking to appoint a full-time Learning Support Assistant to provide 1:1 support to a Year 5 pupil with a diagnosis of Autism and behavioural needs. This role will begin in September 2025 and run for the full academic year, with the potential to extend into a permanent contract. About the Role: You will work closely with a Year 5 pupil who requires support with emotional regulation, behaviour management, and accessing the curriculum.

This is a 1:1 role with a strong emphasis on building trust, creating a safe and structured learning environment, and implementing individualised support strategies.

You will collaborate daily with the class teacher, the school's SENCO, and external professionals (e.g., Educational Psychologist, Speech & Language Therapist).

The pupil may present with high anxiety, emotional outbursts, or difficulty engaging-so experience with SEMH (Social, Emotional & Mental Health) is highly beneficial.

Ideal Candidate Profile: Previous experience working with ASD, challenging behaviour, or pupils with SEMH needs in a school or care setting

Confident using behaviour support strategies (e.g., visual schedules, Now/Next boards, Zones of Regulation, reward systems)
