Make a Lasting Difference in Secondary Education

Are you passionate about supporting young people with Special Educational Needs (SEN) to achieve their full potential?

Do you want to play a vital role in helping students overcome barriers to learning, build confidence, and thrive both academically and socially?

Axcis Education is working in partnership with a welcoming and inclusive mainstream secondary school in the L30 area, seeking a dedicated SEN Teaching Assistant to join their team from September 2026.

This is a fantastic opportunity to support students during a key stage of their education, providing tailored support that enables them to succeed both inside and outside the classroom.

The Role

As an SEN Teaching Assistant, you will:
• Provide one-to-one and small-group support for students with a range of Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).
• Adapt learning activities to ensure students can fully access the secondary curriculum.
• Support pupils with literacy, numeracy, organisation, and classroom engagement.
• Encourage confidence, independence, resilience, and positive social interactions.
• Work closely with teachers and the SEND team to deliver personalised support and interventions.
• Monitor student progress and contribute towards EHCP targets and reviews.
• Promote positive behaviour, emotional wellbeing, and safeguarding at all times.

Every day brings the opportunity to help students develop the skills, confidence, and resilience they need to succeed both in school and beyond.

• Have experience supporting children or young people with SEND (secondary school experience is desirable but not essential).

• Can build positive, professional relationships with students, colleagues, and families.
• Feel confident supporting learning across a range of curriculum subjects.
• Have a good understanding of safeguarding and promoting student wellbeing.
• Are enthusiastic about making a positive and lasting impact on young people's lives.

Why Join This School?
• Join a welcoming and inclusive secondary school with a strong commitment to SEND provision.
• Become part of a supportive and experienced staff team.
• Access ongoing training and professional development opportunities.
• Gain valuable long-term experience within a mainstream secondary setting.
• Excellent public transport links in the L30 area.
• A rewarding role where your support can make a genuine difference every single day.
