Are you passionate about making a real difference in children’s lives? Do you want to work in a dedicated, supportive environment where your efforts directly impact pupils who need it most? A welcoming primary school in Ashington, Northumberland is seeking a dedicated and adaptable SEND Teaching Assistant to join their team. This is a full-time, long-term role based within the school’s bespoke internal SEND Hub, a specialized, nurturing space designed to support children with diverse special educational needs and disabilities.
The Role:
Unlike traditional 1:1 roles, this position focuses primarily on group-based support within the SEND Hub. You will work alongside a passionate team to deliver tailored interventions, manage small-group learning activities, and create an inclusive environment where pupils can thrive. While your day-to-day focus will be on groups, flexibility is key, as you may occasionally be required to provide high-quality 1:1 support for specific students when needed.
Key Responsibilities:
- Support groups of children within the SEND Hub, adapting learning activities to meet their individual social, emotional, and academic needs.
- Work collaboratively with teachers and other professionals to ensure effective delivery of interventions.
- Monitor and assess pupil progress, providing feedback to inform future planning.
- Foster positive relationships with pupils, encouraging their engagement and participation.
- Contribute to the development of a safe and stimulating learning environment.
