Are you an experienced SEN Teaching Assistant who wants to work somewhere that genuinely puts children at the centre of everything it does?
We are currently recruiting for an excellent specialist school in Witney, supporting children and young people with complex additional needs from Early Years through to age 16.
We are looking to speak with both Primary and Secondary SEN Teaching Assistants who are passionate about helping pupils develop their communication, independence, confidence and ability to enjoy learning.
A SCHOOL WHERE EVERY CHILD MATTERS
This is a specialist environment where individual needs are at the heart of the school day.
The school works with pupils with severe and profound learning difficulties, alongside communication and interaction, cognition and learning, and sensory and physical needs.
Every pupil has an individual EHC plan, with teaching and support carefully adapted around their specific needs.
The school's values are centred around:
BELONGING – ensuring every pupil feels valued and included.
POSSIBILITY – believing in what every child can achieve.
GROWTH – helping pupils develop their skills, independence and confidence.
For a TA, this means your role goes far beyond simply supporting classroom learning.
You'll be helping young people to communicate, regulate, develop independence, build confidence and experience success.
