Required from as soon as possible
Contract: Duration of supported child in school

A vacancy has arisen for an experienced SEND Teaching Assistant to join our friendly school and work alongside the class teacher to support a pupil in Early Years who has Special Educational Needs. This would include in-class support, working with small groups or individuals. You will need to be able to work independently and as part of a team, and when supporting individual pupils, you will need to build a relationship to help them achieve their personal targets.
The applicant will need to be a positive, enthusiastic, caring and patient addition to our team with excellent communication skills and a friendly and approachable manner. Experience of supporting children with Special Educational Needs would be an advantage; however we would require the successful candidate to take part in appropriate training.
Our school values underpin our school's philosophy and ethos. They contribute to the high standard of good behaviour and strong moral, spiritual and culture education of the children. We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all pupils and expect all staff to share this commitment. Enhanced DBS clearance is required for this post, plus two references for all short listed candidates. We are an Equal Opportunities employer.
