Make a Difference Every Day. Empower Young People to Achieve Their Potential
Are you passionate about helping young people overcome barriers and achieve success? As a Teaching Assistant, you'll play a vital role in supporting learners with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) to thrive in education, develop essential life skills, and build brighter futures. Working alongside experienced teachers in a welcoming and inclusive environment, you'll provide tailored support that helps learners gain confidence, independence, and the skills they need for employment, further learning, and everyday life. Whether you're experienced in supporting young people or looking to begin a rewarding career in education, this is an opportunity to make a genuine, life-changing impact while developing your own skills and career.
You will need a driving licence for this role.

- Provide one-to-one and small group support tailored to individual learner needs
- Help learners develop confidence, independence, communication and employability skills
- Reinforce learning by adapting resources and providing additional support where required, adhering to safeguarding and health and safety policies and procedures.
- Build positive, trusting relationships that encourage learners to achieve their full potential
- Work collaboratively with teachers and the wider support team to create an engaging, inclusive learning environment
- Adapt to timetable changes and provide support across different curriculum areas as required
