The Role
At Educato, we're looking for a kind, resilient, and proactive PMLD Teaching Assistant to join our outstanding team. This is an opportunity to make a lasting impact on the lives of children with complex needs - helping them access learning, develop communication skills, and feel safe, supported, and celebrated every day.

As part of your role, you will:
- Support pupils 1:1 or in small groups with sensory-rich, engaging activities.

- Use specialist tools like Makaton, PECS, or AAC devices to help students express themselves.
- Help with personal care (toileting, feeding, hoisting - training provided).
- Work closely with teachers, therapists, and families to provide the best possible support.
- Create a warm, positive environment where every child feels seen, heard, and valued.
What We're Looking For

If you're:
- Patient, compassionate, and emotionally resilient
- A strong communicator (verbal and non-verbal)
- Comfortable with personal care responsibilities
- A great team player with a positive attitude
- Passionate about inclusion and helping others thrive
…then we'd love to hear from you!
