Temp-to-Permanent Opportunity
Start Date: January 2026
Are you a passionate and patient individual with a genuine desire to support young people with special educational needs?
We are seeking a dedicated and compassionate Special Educational Needs Teaching Assistant (SEN TA) to support pupils aged 7 to 16 who have autism and associated needs. Many of our learners have experienced difficulties in mainstream education and may display school-based anxiety, avoidance behaviours, or challenging behaviour as a result of previous experiences. They all have Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs) in place, outlining a range of complex, overlapping needs.
The young people you will support may present with a variety of communication, emotional, behavioural, and sensory processing differences. You will play a vital role in helping them feel safe, understood, and ready to learn, using a calm, consistent, and pupil-centred approach.
What the school are looking for:
- Experience working with children or young people with SEN (particularly autism)
- A calm, empathetic, and resilient approach
- Confidence supporting pupils with behavioural and emotional needs
- A team player who is flexible, reliable, and committed to inclusive education

- Exclusive access to permanent roles you won’t find with supply agencies
- A £200 welcome bonus for qualified Teachers joining from another agency
- £150 ‘refer a friend’ reward once they complete 10 days of work
- The choice between PAYE or Umbrella PAYE
- Access to a guaranteed pay scheme (subject to eligibility)
- Interview preparation and expert advice
- A dedicated team to guide you through your onboarding
