What Makes This Role Different?
This isn't your typical classroom position. You'll work with students aged 5-19 who have severe social communication difficulties, complex learning disabilities, and occasionally display challenging behaviours. Your role will be pivotal in helping them access therapy-based education, develop vital life skills, and unlock their potential for independence.

This is your chance to be part of something bigger: supporting young individuals with unique needs while developing a specialised skill set that sets you apart in the education sector.

• Life assurance and medical cash plan after a qualifying period.
• Specialised training in Team Teach positive behaviour support.
• Ongoing professional development, with clear pathways to grow into Senior and Higher-Level Teaching Assistant roles.
• A supportive, collaborative team within a semi-rural campus that promotes well-being.
• Free hot lunch during term time, on-site parking, and access to a 24/7 employee assistance service for confidential support.

Your Working Hours:
36 hours per week, with opportunities for part-time flexibility (minimum of 3 days a week):

• Monday: 8.30am - 4.00pm
• Tuesday to Thursday: 8.30am - 4.15pm
• Friday: 8.30am - 3.45pm

No weekend or evening work - allowing a great work-life balance!

Is This You?
If you're empathetic, resilient, and driven by the desire to help others, this role is for you. No prior experience? No problem. We value common sense, patience, and a willingness to learn above all else.

What you'll bring:

• Strong communication skills for working with students, families, and multidisciplinary teams.
• Adaptability, as you'll be supporting students through emotional, social, and behavioural challenges.
• Basic literacy and numeracy skills, enough to help students and keep records.
• The ability to remain calm under pressure, with a focus on fostering a positive learning environment.

Competitive Salary Information:
Starting salary ranges from £18,469 to £19,206 pro rata for 39 weeks, term time, rising to £19,954 to £21,917 for Senior Teaching Assistant roles. With time, you could also advance to a Higher-Level Teaching Assistant role.
