About this Role

We are seeking to appoint a committed and enthusiastic SEN teaching assistant to join our school to help and support children with special educational needs.

Our ideal candidate is a capable and reliable person with sound literacy and numeracy skills to support the learning needs of individual and groups of children. Depending on the needs of the child, there may be times when you may need to deal with a child's personal hygiene.

This role will also include lunchtime supervision, which may be indoors or outside.

This role is for a fixed-term contract until August 2027, and it is 31.25 hours per week, term time plus 5 inset days, for the successful candidates with a 45-minute lunch break.
