Every child deserves a champion – someone who never gives up on them and understands that progress looks different for everyone. We are seeking a dedicated and compassionate SEND Teaching Assistant to support students with a range of additional needs, including ASD, ADHD, and SEMH.

This isn't just about helping with schoolwork; it's about building confidence, managing anxieties, and celebrating the "small wins" that make a massive impact on a young person's life.

• Rewarding Work:
  Experience the genuine joy of seeing a student overcome a barrier because of your support.
• Weekly Pay:
  Competitive rates paid every Friday via Randstad.
• Expert Training:
  Access to specialised CPD, including Team-Teach, Autism Awareness, and de-escalation strategies.
• Consistency:
  Most of our SEND roles are long-term, providing you with a stable routine and the chance to build real bonds.

We want to hear from you if you:

• Are Empathetic:
  You have a "person-first" approach and can see the world through a student's eyes.
• Are Resilient:
  You stay calm under pressure and can handle challenging behaviour with a professional, de-escalating approach.
• Have
  
  Experience:
  
  Previous experience with SEND (in schools, care, or personal life) is highly desirable.
• Are a Communicator:
  You can work effectively with teachers, parents, and external therapists to follow EHCP (Education, Health and Care Plan) targets.

• Support:
  Work 1:1 or in small groups to make the curriculum accessible (e.g., using visual timetables or sensory breaks).
• Nurture:
  Help students develop social skills and emotional regulation.
• Observe:
  Keep track of progress against EHCP goals and provide feedback to the SENCO.
• Safeguard:
  Maintain a safe, inclusive environment where every student feels valued.

If you have a big heart and a passion for inclusion, we would love to hear from you.
