Summary

Graduate SEN Teaching Assistant – Mainstream Primary – Stoke-on-Trent – September Start – £500–£600 per week

Are you a recent graduate looking to start a rewarding career in education?

Do you have a 2:1 or above in Psychology, Education, Child Development, or a related subject and a genuine interest in supporting children with additional needs?

A welcoming and inclusive mainstream primary school in Stoke-on-Trent is seeking a compassionate and dedicated Graduate SEN Teaching Assistant to join their team this September. This is a full-time role offering valuable classroom experience, ideal for aspiring teachers, educational psychologists, or therapists.

About the Role

As a Graduate SEN Teaching Assistant, you will be working closely with pupils who have special educational needs, providing one-to-one and small group support. Many of the children you’ll work with may have autism, speech and language difficulties, or social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) needs.

You’ll support these pupils in accessing the curriculum, adapting activities under the guidance of the class teacher, and helping them develop confidence, independence, and positive relationships. Your presence will make a real difference in their school life.

What We’re Looking For

  • A 2:1 degree or higher in Psychology, Education, Child Development, or a related subject


  • A patient, empathetic, and proactive approach to supporting children


  • An interest in SEN and inclusive education


  • Strong communication skills and a team-player mindset


  • Previous experience with children (in school or other settings) is a bonus but not essential


    Why Apply?

    • Earn £500–£600 per week (term-time only)


    • Gain hands-on experience in a supportive primary school environment


    • Receive ongoing training and support from experienced teachers and SENCOs


    • Build a strong foundation for teacher training or a career in SEN, psychology, or therapy


      Click 'Apply now' or send your CV and cover letter to begin a fulfilling role where you’ll grow professionally while making a genuine impact on young lives.
