We are seeking a dedicated and adaptable Teaching Assistant to support pupils across KS3 and KS4 in a specialist secondary SEN setting. The role will involve providing 1:1 support when needed for students with ASC, ADHD and complex learning needs, alongside wider classroom and small group support.

• Encourage independence, resilience, and confidence in pupils across KS3 and KS4.

• Behaviour management experience in a school or specialist setting.
• Experience supporting children with SEN, particularly ASC and ADHD.
• Strong communication skills and ability to work effectively as part of a team.
• Patience, empathy, and resilience in supporting pupils with complex needs.

• Competitive rates of pay with temp-to-perm routes available.

• Flexible days and working hours to suit your schedule.
• Culture-matched placements - we take the time to understand you and find schools that fit your values and strengths.

• 5+ CPD courses completed before placement (including Safeguarding, SEND & Behaviour) with access to further accredited training through Milk Academy.
• FREE PSHE lesson plans and resources, designed by real teachers.
• FREE Educator Wellbeing resources and access to our community hub - because we believe supported staff stay longer and make a bigger impact.
