Job Title: Teaching Assistant
Location: New Barn School - River View House, Newbury, Berkshire RG14 2PS
Salary: £23,638 per annum (not pro rata)
Hours: 40 hours per week | Monday to Friday
Contract: Permanent | Term Time Only
Start: November 2026
UK applicants only. This role does not offer sponsorship.
About the Role
We're looking for a compassionate and motivated Teaching Assistant to support young people with additional needs to achieve success, build confidence, and reach their full potential.
This is much more than a classroom support role. You'll become a trusted adult, providing encouragement, stability, and guidance while helping students overcome barriers to learning and develop the skills they need to thrive.
Every day brings new opportunities to make a genuine difference, whether that's supporting a breakthrough in learning, helping a student build confidence, or celebrating milestones that others may take for granted.
If you're patient, resilient, and passionate about improving outcomes for young people, we'd love to hear from you.
What You'll Be Doing
Supporting students' learning, wellbeing, communication, and personal development.
Building positive relationships that help students feel safe, valued, and ready to learn.
Working alongside teachers and other professionals to deliver engaging learning experiences.
Encouraging independence, resilience, and positive behaviour.
Delivering targeted support to help students overcome barriers and achieve their goals.
Creating a positive, inclusive, and nurturing environment where every student can succeed.
About You
GCSE English and Maths (Grade 4/C or above) or equivalent required.
Experience working with children and young people, ideally within education, SEND, care, youth work, or support services.
Patient, resilient, and adaptable to individual needs.
Able to build positive relationships and inspire confidence in others.
Calm and consistent when faced with challenges.
A strong team player with excellent communication skills.
Passionate about making a meaningful difference in the lives of young people.
About Us
New Barn School, part of Options Autism, provides inclusive, nurturing education for autistic children and young people with complex needs across three sites. We deliver personalised learning, therapeutic support, and vocational opportunities tailored to each students’s Education, Health and Care Plan. Students learn in small, supportive settings that promote confidence, independence, and emotional wellbeing. Built on strong partnerships with families, New Barn empowers every learner to thrive and prepare for life beyond school.

We support students with a wide range of complex, co-occurring and neurodivergent needs, including autism, ADHD, SEMH, speech and communication needs, dyslexia and experiences of trauma or adversity.
We are proud to be a part of OFG Education who in 2025 were officially certified as a ‘Great Place to Work’ for the sixth year running.
Why Join Us?
We place students and vulnerable young adults at the heart of everything we do, so every day brings the satisfaction of making a real difference. We are committed to the safeguarding and promoting the welfare of students and young people. All applicants will be subject to social media checks and successful applicants to a fully enhanced DBS.
