You've built your experience supporting children with additional needs. You understand that the right support can completely change how a child experiences school.
Now you may be ready for a role where that experience can have an even greater impact.
A welcoming primary school in Ealing is looking for an experienced Senior SEN Teaching Assistant to provide specialist support for pupils while working closely with the SENCO, teachers and wider support team.
This is an excellent next step for someone who enjoys direct work with children but would also like to take greater responsibility for interventions, pupil progress and inclusive practice.
You'll support children with a range of needs including Autism (ASC), ADHD, SEMH, speech and language needs, sensory differences and learning difficulties.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Delivering targeted 1:1 and small-group SEND interventions.
- Supporting pupils to access classroom learning.
- Helping implement EHCP outcomes and individual support plans.
- Adapting activities and resources around individual needs.
- Monitoring progress and feeding back to teachers and the SENCO.
- Supporting emotional regulation and positive behaviour.
- Encouraging communication, confidence and independence.
- Helping pupils manage routines and transitions.
- Working collaboratively with teachers, support staff and external professionals.
- Sharing effective SEND strategies with other Teaching Assistants where appropriate.
- Contributing to a consistent and inclusive approach across the school.
You may currently be working as a SEND Teaching Assistant, SEN TA, Learning Support Assistant, 1:1 Teaching Assistant or Specialist Support Assistant.
We're particularly interested in hearing from you if you:
- Have strong experience supporting children with SEND.
- Understand that every child's needs present differently.
- Can adapt your approach rather than relying on one strategy.
- Build trusting relationships with children.
- Are confident contributing ideas and observations to the wider SEND team.
- Communicate effectively with teachers and other professionals.
- Are calm, patient and consistent.
- Would like to develop greater responsibility within SEND.
An Enhanced DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to obtain one, will be required.
This isn't simply another Teaching Assistant position.
It's an opportunity to deepen your specialist experience, work closely with experienced SEND professionals and begin taking greater ownership within your role.
You'll benefit from:
- £100-£110 per day PAYE.
- Weekly pay with no umbrella company deductions.
- A supportive and inclusive school environment.
- Access to SEND training and professional development.
- Experience working closely with the SENCO.
- Opportunities to strengthen your intervention and leadership skills.
- Dedicated consultant support throughout your placement.
You've already developed valuable SEND knowledge.
Now you can use it to help pupils make progress while taking the next step in your own career.
