About us
The Wyberton Primary Academy community is one big family with everybody in it working towards the same goal, which is to ensure the very best outcomes and life experiences for our children. Children are at the centre of all we do! Our children are cared for and nurtured in order to grow and flourish in all that they encounter. We believe that all children can achieve countless things and we encourage them to be the very best version of themselves at all times so that they are prepared for their future and the life that lies ahead of them. Our curriculum is aspirational and provides children with vast opportunities to explore, discover and apply their learning in real life authentic experiences which will often include parent engagement activities, these encourage our wider community to be involved in school life.
About our Trust
We are proud to be part of Infinity Academies Trust, a family of 20 schools in Lincolnshire. At Infinity, children are at the heart of everything we do. We strive every day to add value to our schools to enable them to be even better places for our children and young people to learn and grow. We are proud that our trust serves a wide number of different communities and is made up of different kinds of schools. It's this diversity and difference that gives us our strength and broadens our knowledge base of what works best for children.
About the role
We are seeking to appoint a dedicated, enthusiastic and highly motivated SEN Support Assistant to join our committed and supportive team. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who is passionate about making a real difference to a child’s learning, progress and well-being. The successful candidate will provide 1:1 support for a child in KS2, helping them to overcome barriers to learning, develop independence and reach their full potential. At times, the role will also involve supporting children in small groups and working alongside teachers to support learning and engagement across the wider classroom and curriculum.
We are looking for someone who is nurturing, patient and proactive, with a genuine commitment to ensuring every child feels safe, valued and supported to flourish. Experience of working with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and/or ADHD would be an advantage. A good understanding of the KS2 curriculum is also important, enabling you to support the child in accessing learning opportunities, adapting activities where appropriate and ensuring that the provision and outcomes outlined in their Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) are effectively supported. You will work closely with teachers and the wider team, contributing to a positive, inclusive learning environment where all children are encouraged to succeed.
The successful candidate will demonstrate a strong commitment to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. They will be vigilant in recognising and responding to any concerns, understand their responsibilities in keeping children safe and be committed to creating an environment where every child feels secure, respected and able to thrive.

In return we can offer:
- A uniquely inclusive school with a strong tangible vision.
