Full time, long-term position
Special Secondary School
Working with SEMH & ASD students
Monday - Friday, Term Time Only

We are excited to partner with a wonderful secondary special school in Newton Abbot and they are seeking a dedicated teaching assistant (TA) to join their team as soon as possible! This school serves a variety of special educational needs, with a primary focus on students with social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) challenges and autistic spectrum disorder (ASD).
Having placed several educators in this school over recent years, we’ve seen first-hand their exceptional retention rate - thanks to the close-knit team, the highly rewarding work, and the chance to make a real impact on students’ lives.
About the role:
The school is looking for a TA to provide both general classroom support and focused 1:1 assistance across different subjects. If you have a particular subject expertise, the school may be able to place you in classes that align with your strengths (subject to availability).
This role requires resilience, proactivity and confidence in managing challenging behaviours. Experience working with secondary-aged students is essential, ideally in a school environment.
Join this fantastic team and make a meaningful difference in the lives of young people.
