Teaching Assistant (SEN)

Do you want to not just provide children with the opportunities to achieve academically, but also to help them develop the practical skills necessary to manage their own physical, emotional and social well being? Do you want to be integral in rebuilding a child's faith in school and education, by creating an environment where they feel safe and able to learn? If you answered yes then this is the opportunity for you! This is a fabulous opportunity to join an outstanding specialist school dedicated to doing it differently and making a difference! The school is looking for an inspiring SEN Teaching Assistant to join their school on a full time, term time only basis in their KS3 secondary department. This role is needed on a permanent basis to start in September. This role will require you to support SEN learners on a 1:1, small group and whole class basis.
