Are you passionate about supporting young people with Special Educational Needs (SEN)? Schools across Kettering are looking for caring, resilient and motivated SEN Support Assistants to join their teams. If you’re driven by helping pupils with additional needs thrive, this could be the perfect opportunity.

⭐ About the Schools
We work closely with a range of inclusive Kettering schools that put pupil wellbeing at the heart of everything they do. These settings offer nurturing, structured environments where SEN support staff can genuinely make a difference. You’ll be joining teams who are dedicated to supporting students with SEMH needs, ADHD, autism, and other learning differences.

What You’ll Be Doing
As an SEN Support Assistant, you will:
  • Provide 1:1 and small-group support for pupils with SEN and SEMH needs
  • Assist in delivering personalised learning plans
  • Support pupils with emotional regulation, communication and social development
  • Work collaboratively with teachers, SENCOs and pastoral teams
  • Encourage positive behaviour and consistency in the classroom

What We’re Looking For
  • Calm, patient and reliable
  • Passionate about SEN support and child development
  • Open to training, including autism awareness and SEMH training
  • Motivated by improving outcomes for young people
  • Experienced in supporting individuals with SEN needs (school or non-school settings)

Desirable (but not essential):
  • GCSE/O‑Level or equivalent
  • A driving licence (helpful for certain Kettering school locations)
