£109 per day
Full-time
Reception / Year 1 SEN Teaching Assistant – Autism Base
Location: Lambeth, South London
Pay: £95–£110 per day (PAYE options available)
Start Date: ASAP / September Start
Contract: Full-time | Long-term

Are you a compassionate and enthusiastic Teaching Assistant looking to make a real difference in the lives of young children with additional needs?

Our education recruitment agency is working in partnership with a welcoming and inclusive primary school in Lambeth to recruit a dedicated Reception / Year 1 SEN Teaching Assistant to support pupils within the school's specialist Autism Resource Base.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with experience supporting children with Autism (ASC/ASD) or other Special Educational Needs, or for graduates looking to build a career in education, psychology, speech and language therapy, or child development. Autism bases typically provide structured, specialist support while helping pupils access mainstream learning where appropriate.

The Role
  • Provide 1:1 and small group support for Reception and Year 1 pupils with Autism.
    • Support children's communication, social interaction and emotional regulation.
    • Deliver sensory and play-based learning activities.
    • Implement visual timetables, PECS, Makaton or other communication strategies where appropriate.
    • Work closely with teachers, the SENCO and therapists to deliver personalised learning programmes.
    • Encourage independence, confidence and positive behaviour throughout the school day.
    • Support personal care where required.
The Ideal Candidate
  • Experience working with children with Autism or SEN in a school, nursery or care setting.
    • Patient, resilient and nurturing approach.
    • Excellent communication and teamwork skills.
    • Understanding of EYFS and KS1 is desirable.
    • Relevant qualifications (Level 2/3 Teaching Assistant or equivalent) are advantageous but not essential.
    • Graduates in Psychology, Education or related subjects are encouraged to apply.
What the School Offers
  • A supportive and experienced SEN team.
    • Excellent training and ongoing professional development.
    • Modern Autism Resource Base with specialist facilities.
    • Opportunity to gain valuable experience in a highly rewarding setting.
    • Long-term role with the potential to become permanent.
Why Register with Us?
  • Competitive daily pay.
    • Dedicated education consultant providing ongoing support.
    • Access to free CPD and safeguarding training.
    • Opportunities across primary, SEN and specialist schools.
    • Simple registration process and weekly pay.
