Summary
What skills and experience we're looking for
We aren't necessarily looking for a "perfect" application; we are looking for the right heart and mindset.
What you'll need - unwavering patience and a sense of humour, the ability to stay calm under pressure, a 'can-do' attitude towards personal care and a genuine belief that every child can thrive.
What we'd love (but can train) - experience with ASD or complex needs, knowledge of Makaton, understanding of sensory needs, First Aid or Manual Handling training.
What the school offers its staff
Our unit is a tight-knit community within the wider school. We offer:
• A Supportive Family: You’ll work alongside specialist teachers, therapists, and fellow TAs who have your back.
• Professional Growth: Access to high-quality training in SEN strategies, safeguarding, and specialised communication.
• The "Spark" Moments: There is nothing quite like the feeling of a child making eye contact, using a new sign, or mastering a skill for the first time.
"In the ARB, we don't measure progress in miles; we measure it in miracles. If you want a job that truly matters, you've found it."
Commitment to safeguarding
Aspire Academy Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. All appointments will be subject to satisfactory enhanced DBS and vetting checks.
