Small enough to care, big enough to make a positive impact

We want every student at the Seaton Valley Federation of Schools to have a great, inclusive education. Following recent internal promotions, we are expanding our Learning Support Team. We are hiring staff to help students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) across our federation.

We are looking for Band 2 Learning Support Assistants to join our growing team. Working under the guidance of the school SENCo, you will help students reach their personal targets and support an inclusive, high-quality curriculum. You will be dedicated to ensuring every student gets the support they need to reach their full potential.

Ideally, you will hold 5 GCSEs at grades A

  • -C (or equivalent), including English and Maths. A Teaching Assistant or Special Educational Needs qualification is desirable. You should also be able to build strong, positive relationships with students, staff, parents, and other professionals.
  • We have three roles available:
    • Seaton Sluice Middle School - The role will be working five days per week, 30 hours, term-time plus one training day at the start of the school year. It is expected that your initial working hours will be Monday and Friday 8.35am to 3.05pm, with a 30-minute lunch break each day, although this working pattern may change from time to time to meet the operational needs of the schools.
    • Whytrig Middle School - The role will be working three days per week, 18 hours, term-time plus one training day at the start of the school year. Days to be confirmed.
    • Seaton Valley High School - The role will be working two days per week, 12 hours, term-time plus one training day at the start of the school year. Days to be confirmed.

As relatively small schools, we benefit from a strong sense of community where every student is known and valued. Students embrace our core expectations: be ready, be respectful, be safe. These values are deeply embedded in everyday school life and help create a calm, respectful, and purposeful learning environment where all students can thrive.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff to share this commitment. An enhanced criminal records check is required for this post.
