We are looking for a patient, resilient and dedicated SEND Teaching Assistant to join a welcoming alternative provision.
Are you confident supporting young people with additional needs and looking for a rewarding role outside of a mainstream classroom?
The role will primarily involve providing 1:1 support to students, helping them access learning, develop confidence and build positive relationships. You will also be expected to support small group activities and interventions, encouraging students to engage and participate in their learning.
The successful candidate must have previous experience working with SEND and be confident managing a range of behaviours and individual needs. You will need to be adaptable, understanding and able to remain calm when faced with challenging situations, using appropriate strategies to de-escalate behaviours and maintain a positive learning environment.
The ideal candidate will be:
-
Experienced working with children or young people with SEND.
-
Confident providing 1:1 and small group support.
-
Experienced managing challenging behaviours.
-
Patient, nurturing and resilient.
-
Able to adapt their approach to meet individual needs.
-
Confident building positive relationships with students.
-
Passionate about helping young people overcome barriers to learning.
If you are someone who thrives in a varied environment and enjoys making a genuine difference to young people’s lives, we would love to hear from you!
