About the Role
Looking for your next opportunity as an SEN Teaching Assistant in Walthamstow? Destination Education is currently working with a range of welcoming and supportive mainstream primary schools across Walthamstow and the surrounding areas, and we are expecting a variety of exciting SEN Teaching Assistant opportunities to become available.
We are particularly looking for Teaching Assistants interested in full-time positions, supporting pupils with Special Educational Needs within mainstream primary school settings.
