SEND Teaching Assistant (EYFS & KS2)

Are you a caring, patient and dedicated Teaching Assistant with experience supporting children with SEND?

We are recruiting on behalf of a welcoming and inclusive primary school seeking a full-time SEND Teaching Assistant to join their team from September. This is an exciting opportunity to make a real difference to two wonderful pupils while becoming part of a supportive school community. There is also the potential for the role to become permanent for the right candidate.

The Role:

\n
• Full-time, Monday to Friday
\n
• September start
\n
• Morning: Supporting a Reception-aged child within the EYFS setting
\n
• Lunchtime: One hour of lunchtime supervision/support
\n
• Afternoon: Supporting a Year 5 pupil with an EHCP
\n

Both children present with autistic traits and benefit from a calm, nurturing and consistent approach. The Year 5 pupil requires primarily academic support and has no behavioural challenges.

The Ideal Candidate Will Have:

\n
• Experience working with children with SEND, particularly autism (preferred)
\n
• A patient, empathetic and nurturing nature
\n
• The ability to build positive relationships with pupils, staff and families
\n
• Good communication and teamwork skills
\n
• A proactive and flexible approach to supporting learning
\n

In Return:

\n
• A welcoming and supportive school environment
\n
• The opportunity to make a genuine impact on children's learning and development
\n
• Potential for a permanent position following a successful temporary placement
\n
• Competitive rates of pay
\n

If you are passionate about supporting children with additional needs and are available from September, we'd love to hear from you.
