Your New Job
Are you passionate about supporting children with special educational needs? This is a rewarding opportunity to join a specialist all-through school in the High Peak area, catering to pupils aged 5–18 with autism, social-emotional and mental health needs (SEMH), and complex communication challenges. As a SEN Teaching Assistant, you will work closely with experienced SENCOs, teachers, and therapists to deliver tailored 1:1 and small group support. You’ll help pupils meet their EHCP targets, develop independence, and thrive in a nurturing, structured environment. This full-time role is term-time only and offers excellent prospects for long-term career development. Key Responsibilities:
- Support pupils with autism, SEMH, and sensory processing needs.
- Deliver personalised interventions and adapt learning resources.
- Promote emotional regulation, social skills, and academic progress.
- Assist with personal care and life skills development (training provided).
- Collaborate with staff and families to ensure holistic support.
