About The Role
Long Term Futures are working with an inclusive mainstream primary school in Kensington & Chelsea to recruit an SEN Teaching Assistant for their specialist Autism Resource Base from September.
The resource base supports pupils with Autism Spectrum Disorder who benefit from a smaller, more structured learning environment while still having opportunities to access the wider mainstream school.

Key Responsibilities Include
- Providing 1:1 and small group support for pupils with autism
- Supporting communication, social interaction, and emotional regulation
- Delivering structured SEN interventions and activities
- Supporting pupils with transitions and changes to routine
- Encouraging independence and positive engagement with learning
- Supporting pupils to access mainstream lessons and activities where appropriate
- Using visual timetables, communication tools, and other autism-specific strategies
- Working closely with teachers and specialist SEN professionals
