Do you have a background in Special Educational Needs and a genuine desire to help young learners overcome barriers to their education?
A unique independent school in the Tiverton area is seeking an enthusiastic and compassionate Learning Support Assistant to join their dedicated team. This is your chance to become part of a school community where every student is seen, heard, and supported.
About the Role:
You’ll work closely with pupils aged 7–16 who present with a range of additional needs including autism, ADHD, and social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) difficulties. You’ll play a crucial role in helping them engage with learning in a way that’s tailored to their individual needs.
Day-to-day Responsibilities Include:
1. Offering 1:1 and small group support both inside and outside the classroom
2. Supporting learners with emotional regulation, communication, and academic engagement
3. Assisting in the creation of resources and learning activities
4. Helping maintain a calm, structured learning environment
5. Collaborating with teachers and specialists to deliver personalised education plans
What We’re Looking For:
1. Prior experience supporting children or young people with SEN
2. A calm, resilient approach and a positive attitude
3. Strong communication skills and the ability to build meaningful connections
4. SEN training or qualifications (beneficial, but not essential)
5. A genuine interest in inclusive education and student wellbeing
Why This Role?
This is more than just a job — it's an opportunity to be a consistent, encouraging presence in the lives of young people who need it most. You'll receive a competitive day rate, the possibility of a long-term position, and access to professional development through a highly supportive agency and school team.
