Long Term Futures is recruiting an experienced EYFS SEN Teaching Assistant to join a supportive primary school in Harrow this September.
This position is focused on supporting young children with special educational needs within the Early Years, combining learning support with communication, social development and helping pupils become increasingly independent.
The school is looking for someone who understands that progress in EYFS can look very different for children with additional needs. You'll need to be patient, observant and confident adapting your approach to the individual child.
Your Role
As an EYFS SEN Teaching Assistant, you will:
- Support children with additional needs within the EYFS environment
- Provide targeted 1:1 and small-group SEN support
- Help develop communication, language and interaction skills
- Use visual resources, modelling and repetition to support understanding
- Encourage engagement with both structured activities and learning through play
- Support early phonics, literacy and numeracy at an appropriate developmental level
- Help pupils manage routines, transitions and the expectations of the school day
- Work closely with the class teacher and SENCo to follow individual support plans and EHCP targets
What We're Looking For
- Previous experience supporting children with SEN within EYFS or primary education
- Understanding of ASD, speech and language or communication needs is highly desirable
- Knowledge of Makaton, PECS, visual timetables or sensory strategies would be advantageous
- Good understanding of child development and the EYFS Framework
- Patient, nurturing and consistent approach
- Confident working closely with children who require additional support
- Available for a full-time, long-term position from September
