Job Description

Here's a detailed job post for a SEN TA position at the school in NG10 1BW:

Job Opportunity: SEN Teaching Assistant (1:1 Support) – NG10

Are you passionate about making a real difference in a child's educational journey? A primary school in NG10 1BW is seeking a dedicated SEN Teaching Assistant to work 1:1 with a Year 5 student who has special educational needs (SEN). This is a rewarding opportunity to support a child with specific learning and emotional needs, ensuring they thrive both academically and personally.

Position: SEN Teaching Assistant (1:1)
Location: NG10
Contract: Full-time, Temporary (with potential to become permanent)
Start Date: Immediate

About the Role:
As a 1:1 SEN Teaching Assistant, you will work closely with a Year 5 student who requires tailored support due to additional learning needs. Your role will be key in ensuring the student can access the curriculum, develop independence, and feel confident in their learning environment.

Key Responsibilities:

Provide dedicated 1:1 support, adapting lessons to meet the individual needs of the child.
Implement strategies to support social, emotional, and behavioral development.
Work closely with the class teacher and the SENCO (Special Educational Needs Coordinator) to create a nurturing, structured, and supportive learning space.
Use your understanding of special educational needs to build a strong, trusting relationship with the student, fostering their confidence and motivation.
Monitor progress, record observations, and contribute to planning the child’s learning activities.
Assist with classroom management and ensure the child is able to integrate into school life.
Encourage the child’s independence while providing appropriate intervention when necessary.
What We’re Looking For:

Experience working with children with special educational needs such as autism, ADHD, or social/emotional needs is highly desirable.
A solid understanding of individualized learning plans (IEPs) and the ability to adapt learning materials accordingly.
Patience, empathy, and excellent communication skills – essential for building rapport with the student and staff.
Ability to manage challenging behaviors with a calm, positive, and proactive approach.
Teamwork skills, as you’ll work alongside the class teacher, SENCO, and other support staff to ensure the best outcomes for the child.
A relevant qualification in supporting children with SEN (e.g., CACHE Level 2/3 in Supporting Teaching and Learning) is preferred but not essential, as experience and passion for the role can be equally valuable.
Why Join Us?

Opportunity to make a profound impact on a student’s life, supporting their educational and personal growth.
Ongoing support and professional development to enhance your SEN expertise.
Become part of a caring and dynamic school community that values inclusion and diversity.
If you are a caring, enthusiastic individual with a strong commitment to supporting children with SEN, we’d love to hear from you!

Let’s work together to create brighter futures for children with SEN
