SEN Teaching Assistants - Make a Real Difference Every Day

Are you someone who genuinely cares about helping children thrive? Do you have a nurturing, patient approach and a passion for supporting pupils with additional needs?

We're currently looking for dedicated SEN Teaching Assistants to work across welcoming and supportive schools. These roles are perfect for individuals who want to make a meaningful impact, whether you're experienced or just starting your journey in education.

The role: You'll be supporting children with Special Educational Needs, either on a 1:1 basis or within small groups. Every day will be different, but your focus will always be the same - helping pupils feel safe, understood, and confident in their learning.

What you'll be doing:

  • Supporting children with a range of SEN, including autism, ADHD and communication needs
  • Helping to build positive routines and encouraging independence
  • Working closely with the class teacher and SENCO to implement tailored support plans
  • Creating a calm, inclusive, and engaging learning environment
  • We're looking for someone who:

  • Is patient, empathetic, and genuinely enjoys supporting young people
  • Has experience working with children or vulnerable individuals (school-based experience is a bonus, not a must)
  • Can build strong relationships and communicate clearly
  • Is proactive and willing to get stuck in
  • What's on offer:

  • Opportunities in a variety of supportive school settings
  • Ongoing support from a friendly, honest recruitment team
  • Flexible work to suit your availability
  • A chance to make a real, lasting impact in a child's life
  • If you're looking for a role where you can truly make a difference, we'd love to hear from you.

    Get in touch today to find out more or apply - even if you're just exploring your options, we're always happy to have a chat.
