Some pupils need more than a lesson plan to thrive – they need someone who notices when they’re overwhelmed, understands when words fail and celebrates the small wins others might miss.

As a SEN Teaching Assistant, you'll be providing 1:1 or small group support for pupils with additional needs. You'll adapt learning activities, help manage behaviour, and provide calm, structured support during the school day.

• 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

• 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)

• Flexibility to choose your working days and take school holidays off
• Variety of work across different schools, year groups and with pupils with a range of needs
  
  Support from your own Account Manager who’s just a call or message away
• Training access to free CPD including behaviour, autism awareness, and Team-Teach
• Weekly pay cleared, consistent rates with no umbrella deductions

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