Are you an empathetic, resilient and hands-on SEND Teaching Assistant with experience supporting pupils with PMLD?

  • Assisting with moving and handling (hoists, personal care, wheelchair transfers)


  • Delivering sensory-based and communication-rich activities


  • Working closely with physiotherapists, speech therapists and class teachers


  • Creating a safe, structured and caring environment


    What You’ll Need

    ✅ Experience supporting children with PMLD, SLD or complex needs
    ✅ Moving and handling training
    ✅ A caring, patient and flexible approach
    ✅ Experience with communication aids (PECS, Makaton, sensory strategies) is a bonus
