Location: Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire
Salary: £80-100 per day
Position Overview:
Smile Education is currently recruiting on behalf of a group of primary schools in the Melton Mowbray area that require additional support in their primary SEND department. The schools are keen to meet Teaching Assistants/LSAs to work with their SEN/SEMH pupils in Key Stage 1 and 2 as well as EYFS. These positions will start ASAP and will run for the academic year.
Requirements:
1. Minimum of two days a week availability (more preferred).
2. NVQ Level 2 or 3 Teaching Assistant Qualification or a degree in Psychology or Special Educational Needs (ideal but not essential).
3. Experience working in primary or early years settings.
The schools are looking for caring, committed, and enthusiastic teaching assistants who are interested in supporting pupils with special needs. They are particularly interested in candidates with practical and theoretical knowledge of SEND, especially those with an interest in Autism.
This position may start part-time, but there are opportunities for longer-term full-time roles to establish a good working bond with the pupils supported.
If you are a psychology graduate looking to gain experience en-route to becoming an Educational Psychologist, this could be the perfect opportunity for you.
