Job Description

SEN Teaching Assistant (TA) - King's Lynn & Surrounding Areas Are you a compassionate, resilient individual looking for a rewarding role where you can make a tangible difference? Whether you are an experienced specialist seeking absolute flexibility on a day-to-day basis or you are looking for the stability of a dedicated long-term placement, we offer professional opportunities tailored to your requirements. We are currently partnering with a variety of established Special Educational Needs (SEN) schools, alternative provisions, and specialist inclusion units throughout King's Lynn and the surrounding areas. We are seeking committed, proactive Teaching Assistants to support pupils with diverse and complex learning needs. This framework is ideal for experienced SEN practitioners, psychology graduates looking to build field hours, or mainstream learning support assistants aiming to transition their skills into a dedicated specialist environment.

Select your working days on a weekly basis to seamlessly accommodate personal commitments, academic studies, or lifestyle preferences. This route offers an excellent opportunity to gain exposure to different specialist settings. Long-Term Opportunities: For educators seeking contractual continuity, we manage fixed-term assignments spanning a term or a full academic year (covering maternity leave, long-term absence, or interim vacancies). This allows you to integrate fully into a local specialist team and build deep, impactful relationships with the pupils you support.
