Job Description:

We are working closely with an inclusive and forward‑thinking mainstream primary school in Crawley who are seeking a dedicated SEN Teaching Assistant to support children with additional needs predominantly within the school's outdoor provision.

Job Responsibility:

  • Supporting children with SEN through play‑based and experiential learning outdoors
  • Helping pupils regulate emotions, behaviour, and sensory needs using the outdoor environment
  • Encouraging communication, social interaction, and independence
  • Working 1:1 and in small groups as needed
  • Supporting transitions between indoor and outdoor learning
  • Working closely with class teachers, TAs, and the SENCo to follow personalised strategies
  • Promoting inclusion, safety, and positive behaviour at all times

Requirements:

  • Has experience supporting children with SEN, ideally in a primary setting
  • Is calm, patient, and confident supporting children with regulation needs
  • Enjoys working outdoors and understands the benefits of learning beyond the classroom
  • Can follow guidance while also using initiative
  • Builds strong, trusting relationships with children and staff

Nice to have:

Experience with autism, sensory processing needs, or SEMH

What we offer:
  • A consistent, full‑time role rather than ad‑hoc supply
  • Opportunity to support children in a creative, active learning environment
  • Support from experienced school staff and SEN leadership
  • Ongoing support from a dedicated education recruitment partner
