£460 - £500 per week
Full-time

SEMH Teaching Assistant – Luton

Education & Training Sector

£460–£500 per week

Are you someone who thrives on helping young people overcome barriers and grow in confidence? A nurturing and forward-thinking school in Luton is looking for an SEMH Teaching Assistant to join their team and support pupils with social, emotional, and mental health needs.

As an SEMH Teaching Assistant, you will be a key source of support for pupils who require emotional guidance and behavioural consistency to succeed in school. Many of the children you’ll work with may face challenges such as:

* Emotional regulation and anxiety
* Behavioural and attachment-related needs
* Low confidence and self-belief
* Difficulties with social interaction and communication
* Trauma-informed needs
* You’ll support pupils both one-to-one and in small groups, helping them feel safe, understood, and ready to engage with learning.

Key Responsibilities

* Supporting pupils throughout the school day to access learning
* Promoting positive behaviour and emotional wellbeing
* Helping pupils develop coping strategies and resilience
* Encouraging positive interactions with peers and staff
* Working closely with teachers, SEN teams, and pastoral staff
* Contributing to a calm, structured, and inclusive classroom environment

Who We’re Looking For

* A patient, empathetic, and dependable individual
* Someone who is passionate about supporting children and young people
* Confident in building trusting relationships
* Able to stay composed in challenging situations
* A team player with good communication skills
* Previous SEMH or SEND experience is helpful but not essential
* A willingness to learn and develop within education and training

About the School

* Located in Luton with good transport links
* Strong emphasis on wellbeing, inclusion, and pupil support
* Friendly and collaborative staff culture
* Supportive leadership team
* Access to training and clear progression opportunities

What’s On Offer for the SEMH Teaching Assistant position:

* Weekly pay between £460–£500
* Ongoing training and CPD
* A welcoming and supportive working environment
* Hands-on experience within education and training
* The chance to positively impact young lives every single day

This role in Luton is ideal for individuals who want to make a genuine difference and gain valuable experience within education and training.

If you’re ready to take the next step in a fulfilling education role and support pupils in Luton to reach their potential, apply today for the SEMH Teaching Assistant position.
