About this Role

We are seeking a committed and compassionate SEN Teaching Assistant to join our team at St James CE Academy, providing targeted 1:1 and small group support for pupils with a range of additional needs. Working closely with the SENCO and class teachers, you will help adapt learning, implement support strategies and ensure pupils can access the curriculum confidently and successfully.

This is a hands-on and varied role. You will support pupils to stay focused and engaged, break learning into manageable steps, and use appropriate communication and behaviour strategies to meet individual needs. You’ll also play an important role in supporting pupils’ social, emotional and personal development, helping to build independence, confidence and positive relationships. In some cases, this may include supporting personal care and implementing specific programmes or interventions.

We are looking for someone who is patient, adaptable and observant, with the ability to build strong, trusting relationships with children. You will need to be proactive in responding to pupils’ needs and committed to helping every child succeed.

Specific hours are 08:30 to 12:00 plus 13:45 to 15:30 (26.25hours per week).
