Pay
£100-£110 per day PAYE
Contract
Full-Time | Long-Term
Turn Your SEND Experience Into Leadership Experience
You don't necessarily need a management title to start becoming a leader.
Leadership can mean sharing a strategy that works. Supporting a colleague with a challenging situation. Spotting when an intervention needs adapting. Or confidently contributing your observations when a pupil's progress is being reviewed.
A primary school in Greenford is looking for an experienced Lead SEN Learning Support Assistant who is ready to build on their classroom experience and take greater responsibility within SEND provision.
Where You'll Make a Difference
You'll work with pupils with needs including ASC, ADHD, SEMH, communication difficulties, speech and language needs, sensory differences and learning difficulties.
You'll help ensure pupils receive structured support that enables them to participate, progress and become increasingly independent.
Your Role Will Include
- Leading targeted 1:1 and small-group interventions.
- Supporting pupils with EHCPs and individual support plans.
- Helping teachers adapt learning for different needs.
- Monitoring progress against agreed targets.
- Recording observations and contributing to reviews.
- Supporting positive behaviour and emotional regulation.
- Promoting communication, confidence and independence.
- Working alongside the SENCO to coordinate effective interventions.
- Modelling positive SEND practice.
- Sharing strategies and ideas with other support colleagues.
- Working with families and external professionals where appropriate.
- Helping maintain consistently high expectations for SEND provision.
