Rising Hope Education is recruiting a SEND Teaching Assistant to join a specialist SEN school in East London from September, working with primary-aged pupils within a Year 2 class.
You'll be supporting children with a range of additional needs, including autism and communication, sensory and emotional regulation needs.
For some children, communicating what they want, need or feel can be incredibly difficult.
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.
That's why we're looking for somebody who doesn't simply react to behaviour but is curious enough to understand what the child might be trying to communicate.
Your Role Will Include
- Supporting communication and interaction
- Sensory and emotional regulation
- Classroom learning
- Transitions and routines
- Social interaction
- Independence and life skills
- Positive behaviour and engagement
Who could this suit?
We'd love to hear from experienced SEND Teaching Assistants, but school experience isn't the only route into this position.

You'll be working alongside experienced teachers and SEND professionals within an established specialist environment.
