Help a Child Make a Positive Start to Their School Journey
We are seeking caring, patient, and dedicated Teaching Assistants to provide individual support for pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). These rewarding roles involve working closely with pupils to help them access learning, build confidence, develop independence, and enjoy a successful school experience. Two of the positions will support pupils joining Reception in September 2026 as they begin their primary school journey, while a third role will support a pupil in Year 1. Each child has individual learning needs and requires tailored support to access the curriculum and achieve their full potential.
