Are you a passionate and experienced SEND Teaching Assistant looking to make a real difference? A warm and inclusive primary school in Aston is seeking a dedicated TA to support pupils with higher needs in a full-time role starting in September.

This is a rewarding opportunity to work closely with children who have a range of additional needs, including nonverbal communication and complex learning profiles. You'll be an essential part of a nurturing team, helping pupils engage, communicate and thrive in a classroom environment.

Your Role:
- Provide 1:1 and small group support to pupils with high-level SEND needs

- Experience supporting children with SEN, particularly autism and communication needs
- A calm, patient and proactive approach
- Ability to follow EHCP targets and support strategies
- A calm, resilient, and patient approach
- A genuine passion for supporting children with additional needs

Why Work with Long Term Futures?
- Long-term, stable work with the potential for a permanent role.
- No day-to-day supply - full-time consistency in one school.
- A dedicated consultant to support you throughout your placement.
- Trial days instead of formal interviews to ensure the right fit.
- Access to free CPD training, including Understanding Autism, Behaviour Management, and further professional development/refreshers.

Next Steps - Our 4-Step Process
- Apply - Submit your CV via the application page.
- Initial Call - Our team will discuss your experience and preferences.
- Trial Day - Experience the school before making a decision.
- Start Work - If the school is the right fit, you're ready to begin.

All applicants will need a valid DBS and two references to be considered for a trial day.
