Special Needs Teaching Assistant (SEN TA)

A supportive SEN school in Brent is looking for a Special Needs Teaching (SEN TA) to join their welcoming setting from September. As a Special Needs Teaching Assistant (SEN TA) you will be working in the classroom to support during lessons, maintain engagement and promote pupil’s independence. Pupils will have needs inclusive of autism (ASD), global delay (GD), and speech, language, and communication (SLCN). Some pupils in the class will be non-verbal and engage well with PECs, visual timetables and sensory approaches, so experience is desirable, but not essential.

• £85-£95 per day (dependent on experience and qualifications)
• Long-term, full-time
• September start
• Good transport links and access to on-site car park

The successful Special Needs Teaching Assistant (SEN TA) will:

• Have a positive attitude and dedication to provide the best care for SEN pupils
• Have good SEN experience, especially of autism (ASD), global delay (GD), and speech, language, and communication (SLCN) needs
• Have experience using PECs and sensory approaches
• Enjoy working in a team
• Quickly adapt to different classroom situations
• Have a valid Enhanced DBS
