MAKE A DIFFERENCE. EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.
Academics Agency is recruiting SEN Teaching Assistants for September—and we want YOU to join our team across Barnsley's most dynamic specialist schools.
This isn't just a job. It's a chance to be the reason a child smiles, succeeds, and believes in themselves.
Every day, you'll walk into classrooms where your patience, creativity, and heart will turn challenges into breakthroughs. From autism to ADHD, communication disorders to complex learning needs—you'll be the steady presence that makes learning possible.
YOUR MISSION (SHOULD YOU CHOOSE TO ACCEPT):
⚡ Be their champion—supporting pupils 1:1 and in small groups, building confidence and core skills.
⚡ Think on your feet—adapting lessons, resources, and approaches to fit each unique learner.
⚡ Turn behaviour into progress—using positive, tailored strategies that build self-esteem and engagement.
⚡ Collaborate like a pro—working alongside teachers, SENCOs, and families to track progress and shape EHCPs.
⚡ Embrace every challenge—from sensory sensitivities to speech delays, you'll meet each child where they are and take them further.
WHO YOU ARE:
✔️ Qualified or experienced—Level 3 TA or equivalent experience in education, childcare, or health settings.
✔️ SEN-savvy—you've supported children with additional needs and know how to adapt, connect, and inspire.
✔️ Calm under pressure—patient, flexible, and solution-focused when things get tricky.
✔️ DBS-ready—Enhanced DBS on the Update Service, or happy to get one fast.
✔️ Reference-perfect—two strong professional references ready to go.
WHAT WE GIVE YOU:
💰 £92.56–£110 per day (holiday included)—with higher rates for extra experience or qualifications.
📆 Paid weekly—term-time only, temporary Monday–Friday.
📚 Free CPD—sensory processing, positive handling, autism-friendly practice and more.
📍 Flexible placements—across a range of well-regarded Barnsley specialist schools.
🎁 £75 Love2Shop for every friend you refer who joins us.
🤝 Your own dedicated consultant—support from day one, every step of the way.
THE COUNTDOWN TO SEPTEMBER IS ON.
Spaces are filling fast—and we need people who are ready to step up, stand out, and make a lasting impact.
If that's you—don't wait.
