Summary
BSL Teaching Assistant - Lewisham
Start: September 2025 | Full-Time | Long-Term
Remedy Education is proud to be recruiting on behalf of one of London's most respected specialist primary schools for deaf pupils, based in the heart of Lewisham.
This is a school with an outstanding reputation not just for how it teaches, but for how it listens. The team here don't do half-measures. Every pupil is supported to express themselves fully, access learning confidently, and be part of a community that truly understands them.
They're now looking for a BSL Level 2 (or higher) Teaching Assistant to join their team in September. If you've been searching for a role where your signing skills are valued and vital this could be the right move.
About the role:
This isn't a one-off placement. You'll be a core part of a small, specialist classroom team supporting deaf pupils aged 4-11. Pupils communicate primarily through British Sign Language, and your role will be to support them both academically and socially throughout the day. You'll help scaffold their understanding in lessons, sign key instructions, and ensure every child in your group feels seen, heard, and included.
You'll be right for this if you:
- Hold a minimum BSL Level 2 qualification
- Have experience working with children, ideally in an educational or SEN setting
- Are confident signing in a fast-paced classroom environment
- Can work closely with teachers and speech/hearing specialists
- Bring warmth, clarity, and consistency to your interactions
This school offers:
- A stable, structured, and specialist setting no guesswork, no chaos
- A strong leadership team who understands deaf education and prioritise staff wellbeing
- Ongoing professional development including BSL refreshers and SEN-specific CPD
- A genuinely collaborative culture where support is shared and staff stay long-term
If you want to work in a school that gets it right where communication is at the heart of everything then we'd love to speak with you.
Apply now to find out more.
Please note: All applicants must have the right to work in the UK and hold an Enhanced DBS or be willing to apply for one through us. Safeguarding and references will be thoroughly checked before appointment.
