We are seeking a dedicated SEN Teaching Assistant (TA) to work with junior students in small, focused groups of up to 6 learners.

Key Responsibilities:
- Supporting the class teacher in delivering tailored lessons for students with SEN.
- Managing small group sessions, focusing on specific learning objectives.
- Helping students develop their self-esteem, social skills, and independence.
- Monitoring progress, providing feedback, and working closely with other support staff to deliver a cohesive approach.
- Assisting with behavior management strategies, fostering a positive and nurturing environment.

Requirements:
- Previous experience working with children with Special Educational Needs (SEN), particularly in an educational setting.
- Patience, empathy, and a commitment to inclusive education.
- Ability to build strong, trusting relationships with students, staff, and parents.
- Relevant qualifications (e.g. , a Level 2 or 3 TA qualification) are desirable, but not essential - we welcome applications from those with the right experience and mindset.
