Teaching Assistant - SEND Provision

£125 - £160 per day
Full-time

We are working with an excellent and highly regarded school in the LU3 area of Luton to recruit a Teaching Assistant to join their SEND provision.

This is a great opportunity for an experienced Teaching Assistant, Learning Support Assistant or education professional looking to develop their SEND experience within a supportive and specialist environment.

The school offers a more personalised approach to learning, with smaller groups and a strong focus on building positive relationships with pupils. It could be an excellent next step for someone looking to move away from the demands of a busy mainstream environment.

About the Role

You'll work closely with teachers and the wider support team to provide learning, pastoral and behavioural support to pupils with additional needs.

The role will involve:

  • Providing one-to-one and small-group support
  • Supporting pupils with SEND and additional learning needs
  • Helping pupils access and engage with lessons
  • Supporting literacy, numeracy and wider learning activities
  • Encouraging positive behaviour and emotional regulation
  • Building strong and trusting relationships with pupils
  • Helping pupils develop confidence, independence and social skills
  • Working alongside teachers to adapt learning to individual needs
  • Supporting pupils throughout the school day, including during less structured periods
  • Contributing to a calm, safe and positive learning environment

Why Consider This Role?

If you're an experienced Teaching Assistant or education professional looking for a change, this could offer a more rewarding and manageable working environment.

You'll benefit from:

  • £125-£160 per day, depending on experience
  • Full-time Monday-Friday, during school hours
  • Temp-to-perm opportunities
  • Smaller groups and a more personalised approach to learning
  • The opportunity to build valuable SEND experience
  • Supportive teachers and a wider specialist team
  • An excellent and well-regarded school
  • Training and development opportunities
  • Desirable LU3 location in Luton

This could be particularly well suited to candidates currently working in mainstream schools who are interested in moving into SEND, specialist education or alternative provision .

You don't necessarily need extensive SEND experience. What's most important is that you're patient, reliable, adaptable and genuinely interested in supporting young people with additional needs.

The Ideal Candidate

We're keen to hear from:

  • Experienced Teaching Assistants
  • Learning Support Assistants
  • SEN Teaching Assistants
  • Behaviour Support Workers
  • Graduates with relevant education or youth experience
  • Education professionals looking to transition into SEND

You'll ideally be:

  • Experienced working with children or young people
  • Patient, calm and supportive
  • Confident building positive relationships
  • Comfortable supporting pupils with additional needs
  • Able to work effectively as part of a team
  • Reliable, adaptable and enthusiastic
  • Interested in developing your SEND experience

The school is looking to meet suitable candidates, with site visits currently being arranged and opportunities available to start within the coming weeks.

If you're looking for your next Teaching Assistant opportunity in Luton LU3 , particularly if you're considering a move into SEND, we'd love to hear from you.
