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

Interested?

Send over your CV along and well arrange a short call, handle the checks, and help get you into schools where you can make a real difference.
