SEN Teaching Assistant - Gosport
Looking for a role where you can make a lasting impact on a young person's future?
Or perhaps you're already working with children, young people, or vulnerable adults and want to take your experience into a school environment?
We're working with specialist schools across Gosport that are looking for SEN Teaching Assistants to support students on both flexible and long-term placements.
This is a fantastic opportunity for individuals who are passionate about helping young people overcome barriers to learning and achieve their potential.
No classroom experience? That's okay.
You don't need previous experience as an SEN Teaching Assistant to apply.
Many of our successful candidates come from backgrounds in coaching, care, youth work, customer service, and support roles. What schools value most is your ability to build relationships, remain calm under pressure, and provide consistent support.
We'll provide training, guidance, and ongoing support to help you feel confident in your new role.
What You'll Be Doing
- Supporting students with additional needs, including autism, ADHD, and SEMH
- Working one-to-one and with small groups of pupils
- Encouraging engagement with learning and classroom activities
- Supporting emotional wellbeing and positive behaviour strategies
- Building positive relationships that help students feel safe and supported
- Working alongside teachers and SEN professionals to meet individual student needs
