We’re looking for a Teaching Assistant to join our team, supporting students aged 7-11 who face challenges with communication and social interaction, often associated with Autism. Whether you’re experienced or keen to step into a SEN environment, this role offers a chance to positively impact young lives.
If you have personal experience with Autism, perhaps through family members, and you’re motivated to contribute positively in a similar setting, we especially want to hear from you! Our school is located in a serene area of Surrey, providing a therapeutic environment for learning and teaching.
What You’ll Be Doing:
* Build warm, supportive relationships with our pupils, helping them feel safe and eager to learn.
* Encourage and foster personal development and independence among the students.
* Assist our Class Teacher with daily classroom activities and keep things running smoothly.
* Adapt to various needs of the school, which might include some physical intervention (training will be provided).
* Promote all-around growth in our students—cognitive, social, emotional, or physical.
We’re Looking For Someone Who:
* Has at least a Grade 4 in GCSE Maths and English.
* Holds or is working towards a Level 2 or 3 Teaching Assistant Qualification (nice to have, but not a deal-breaker).
* Has experience in a special school setting or personal experience with Autism (big plus!).
* Might have Team TEACH Training (also a plus).
* Ideally, should be a driver due to the location of our school.
Perks of the Job:
* Competitive daily rate and a clear path to a permanent role if you’re a good fit!
* Refer a friend and earn up to £500 in vouchers for each successful referral.
* Life assurance and a top-notch pension scheme.
* Discounts on the high street, car lease schemes, and a bike to work program.
* Access to our Health cashback plan to keep you feeling great.
