SEND Teaching Assistant - Primary Schools

£14 - £15 per hour

SEND Teaching Assistant – Primary Schools

Primary schools across Croydon are looking for compassionate, confident SEND support staff to work 1:1 and in small groups with pupils who need that extra bit of understanding.

This is about being patient, consistent and genuinely invested in helping children feel safe and able to learn.

What the role could involve:

• Supporting pupils with autism, ADHD or SEMH
• Helping children regulate emotions and access learning
• Working closely with class teachers and SENCOs
• Creating safe, structured routines
• Celebrating progress, however small

Some roles are full-time and long-term. Others offer flexibility to fit around your life. You choose what works.

We’re looking for people who:

• Have experience supporting children with SEND, in schools or similar settings
• Stay calm under pressure
• Build trust through consistency and kindness
• Understand that behaviour is communication

If you’ve worked in a primary classroom, a SEND setting, youth work, care, or similar, we’d love to hear from you.

Why join Protocol Education?

• Weekly PAYE pay, no umbrella companies
• FREE access to our online CPD Academy
• Ongoing SEND-focused training
• A dedicated local consultant who understands Croydon schools
• Opportunities in mainstream and specialist settings
• Referral scheme, earn rewards for referring friends

We know SEND support takes resilience, empathy and skill. The schools we work with value their support staff and want people who care as much as you do.

Ready to step into a role where what you do really matters?

Apply now or message us to chat about SEND roles in Croydon.

All applicants will require the appropriate qualifications and training for this role. Please see the FAQs on the Protocol Education website for further details.

All pay rates quoted will be inclusive of 12.07% statutory holiday pay. This advert is for a temporary position. In some cases, the option to make this role permanent may become available at a later date.
