Job Description:

Be a Founding Force: SEN Teaching Assistant. Most schools ask you to follow a path. We're asking you to help us build one. Having opened our doors in September 2025, our brand-new Secondary SEN school is looking for its founding team of Teaching Assistants-individuals who want to do more than "support" a classroom, but actually help define the heart and soul of a new educational community. This isn't your typical school environment. You'll be working with students aged 11-16 who have unique profiles related to social communication, emotional regulation, and sensory processing. Your day-to-day involves working within a highly specialised, multi-disciplinary model. You won't be alone; you'll collaborate with therapists and specialists to ensure our students feel safe, understood, and empowered to learn.

Job Responsibility:

Championing Growth: Helping students navigate learning and social development in a high-support, low-stress environment
Positive Mentoring: Using a tailored, empathetic approach to behaviour, focusing on de-escalation and building long-term independence
Creative Adaptation: Working hand-in-hand with teachers to adjust resources and activities so they meet the specific sensory and cognitive needs of each pupil
Safeguarding Excellence: Maintaining a proactive "eyes-on" approach to pupil welfare and wellbeing

Requirements:

GCSE Maths and English Grade 4/C (or equivalent)
Resilient, adaptable, and genuinely empathetic
A solid grasp of Safeguarding principles

Nice to have:

Any experience in SEND, youth work, or inclusive settings

What we offer:

Professional Growth: fully funded training and qualifications
Financial Security: enhanced pension scheme and life assurance
Physical & Mental Health: Health Cash Back Plan, Employee Assistance Programme, supportive team culture
Lifestyle & Travel: Perkbox high street discounts, Bike to Work scheme, optional Car Lease scheme, free on-site parking
Referral Bonus
