Job description
Are you seeking a fulfilling career in education that offers a balanced work-life schedule, holidays aligned with school breaks, daily challenges, and a profound sense of accomplishment? Look no further.
As a Specialist Teaching Assistant focusing on children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), you'll leverage your life or professional experiences to support their educational journey. Benefiting from smaller class sizes, a tailored curriculum, and cutting-edge facilities, you'll thrive in a welcoming and nurturing environment alongside individuals dedicated to academic excellence.
Your primary responsibility will be to empower children and young adults in achieving educational independence both within the classroom and in broader community settings. This entails providing necessary support, fostering academic and social growth, and offering challenges to extend their capabilities.
Working with individuals with diverse needs demands qualities such as empathy, patience, perseverance, and the ability to serve as a positive role model, fostering self-belief and confidence. While some situations may present behavioural challenges, comprehensive training and mentorship will equip you to competently and confidently navigate these scenarios.
This role is ideal for individuals embarking on a career in education, whether you're just starting out, re-entering the workforce, or transitioning from another field. It's an opportunity to infuse your unique personality and character into your work, effecting tangible change, acquiring qualifications, and cultivating a lasting career in a profoundly rewarding sector where your contributions truly matter.
Typical working hours are Monday to Friday, 08:30 to 15:30, during term time, with part-time options available. Please note that sponsorship is not available for this position; applicants must be eligible to live and work in the UK.
If you're ready to embark on a journey where you can make a significant impact and forge a meaningful career path, we invite you to apply and join us in shaping brighter futures for our students.
