Teaching Assistants Level 3

Join the “Comprehensive School of the Year east Anglia” 2026

At Impington Village College we are proud to have a large and highly regarded SEND Faculty. We have students from ages 11‑18 with a wide range of needs, some of which are very complex. We also have Enhanced Resource units for young people with EHCPs and more complex needs.

The successful candidate must have the skills and experience to enable students to become independent learners and make progress. The successful candidate would be responsible for planning, overseeing and teaching small groups of SEND students in addition to supporting students with SEND in their lessons. The ability to share your expert knowledge and experience through training and CPD sessions for other teaching assistants and teachers is essential.

As a College we are committed to investing in our teaching assistants and their talent. Starting with a comprehensive induction programme we make sure every TA is clear about their role, and has the tools, knowledge and learning they need to perform well and make a difference. We provide fortnightly structured CPD either delivered by our specialist staff or external professionals to give you the opportunity to learn more about specialism areas or strategies to work with specific students.
