Some Teaching Assistant roles are primarily about helping children complete their work.
Apply promptly! A high volume of applicants is expected for the role as detailed below, do not wait to send your CV.
This role starts with understanding the child.
Rising Hope Education is looking for a Specialist SEND Teaching Assistant to join a primary-aged class within a specialist SEN setting in East London.
The pupils you'll support have a variety of additional needs, and successful support relies heavily on relationships, communication, consistency and emotional regulation.
There may be occasions when a child becomes dysregulated or struggles to communicate what they're feeling.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
When that happens, we need somebody who can remain calm, predictable and compassionate.
Someone who doesn't take behaviour personally.
Someone who can reset tomorrow and greet that child with exactly the same warmth they did today.
You'll Help Pupils To
- Communicate their wants and needs
- Access learning
- Manage transitions
- Develop independence
- Build positive relationships
- Develop social interaction
- Regulate their emotions
- Feel safe, understood and successful within school

Previous SEND experience would be fantastic, particularly within autism, complex needs or communication.
However, we'd also welcome strong candidates from care, support work, youth work, psychology or similar backgrounds who have the right values and resilience.
Rising Hope Education specialises exclusively in SEND and inclusion. Our aim isn't simply to find you a school placement – we want to understand where you want your SEND career to go and help you develop the experience and training to get there.
