We’re seeking a motivated and compassionate SEN Teaching Assistant to join a specialist school in South London, supporting pupils aged 5-19 with social, emotional, and mental health (SEMH) needs.

Hours: Monday to Friday, 08:30am - 4:00pm
Location: South London
Start Date: ASAP
Why This Role Stands Out
