SEN Teaching Assistant

Our clients vision is to provide support and care for children with learning difficulties and challenging behaviours, promoting independence, choice and valuing individual uniqueness, diversity and achieving outcomes that matters most to the children and young people they care for.

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a full-time Teaching Assistant to join our clients Independent Specialist School in Peterborough where they support young people aged between 9 - 19 years with a range of disabilities and primarily a diagnosis of autism, with a particular specialism in developing communication and social skills through a therapeutically informed approach.

Within our clients school settings, their ethos is to ensure the pupils receive excellent educational opportunities and acquire knowledge and skills, e.g. numeracy, literature and IT skills, in addition to developing personal and life skills that will support them through to adult life. You should be passionate for the wellbeing of children and have a caring and patient nature.

No two days are ever the same, sometimes they may be challenging but always positive.
