* Weekly pay of £465 – £500
* Access to ongoing training and professional development
* A welcoming and supportive school environment
* Valuable experience within education and training
* The opportunity to make a genuine difference in young people’s lives
As an SEMH Teaching Assistant, you will provide consistent support to pupils who may struggle with emotional regulation, confidence, or behaviour. Your role will involve helping them feel secure, supported, and motivated to take part in learning.
A supportive and inclusive school in Bedford is seeking a dedicated SEMH Teaching Assistant to work with pupils who require additional help managing social, emotional, and mental health needs. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone interested in developing experience within education and training while making a meaningful impact in the classroom.
You will work closely with students both individually and in small groups, offering encouragement and helping them build the skills needed to succeed both academically and socially.
Many learners may experience challenges such as:
* Anxiety or difficulty managing emotions
* Behavioural or attachment-related needs
* Low self-esteem and confidence
* Social communication difficulties
* Trauma-related barriers to learning
Key Responsibilities of an SEMH Teaching Assistant:
* Assist pupils throughout lessons so they can fully access learning activities
* Encourage positive behaviour and emotional development
* Help students develop resilience and strategies to manage challenges
* Support positive relationships with classmates and staff
* Work collaboratively with teachers, SEN professionals, and pastoral teams
* Contribute to a structured, calm, and supportive classroom environment
You will ideally be:
* Patient and understanding with a calm approach
* Passionate about working with children and supporting their development
* Comfortable building strong and trusting relationships with pupils
* Able to remain calm when managing challenging situations
* A strong communicator who works well within a team
Experience supporting SEMH or SEND needs is beneficial but not required. A positive attitude and willingness to learn within education and training are far more important.
