The Opportunity

As part of Brunel, we are a proud, creative education community with a vision of no barriers only potential. We strive to significantly improve the life chances and outcomes for our children and young people (CYP), whether they are within our SEND provisions or mainstream schools.

As a growing Multi Academy Trust, now is a fantastic time to join our team of SEND education professionals as we look to secure Support Assistants to be part of a new satellite specialist provision (EYFS) within our Exeter House sites or resource base class (KS2) based in St Marks CofE Junior School. If you are interested in becoming a SEND Teaching Assistant, but want to build on your work experience, providing support and care to our CYP, or simply enjoy providing a nurturing approach to SEND CYP within an education setting – this would be a great opportunity for you.

Initially, we would like you to be based at our Exeter House School for training and development support; an Ofsted rated Good, all through special school for CYP from EYFS age 4 to higher education age 19 who have PMLD, SLD or Complex Needs until your class is ready to open.

Your role will be pivotal to our CYP and as part of the wider organisation’s community network. You will be part of an exciting phase as we work together to meet the end goal of our Trust: to collaborate and build a successful community of mainstream schools and SEND provisions to ensure our CYP have the education they deserve.

Please see the job description and person specification to learn more about the expectations of this exciting position.
