This Graduate Speech and Language Teaching Assistant position in a welcoming primary school in Birmingham offers the perfect opportunity to gain meaningful, hands-on experience supporting pupils with speech, language, and communication needs (SLCN).

Whether you're preparing for a postgraduate course in speech and language therapy, a PGCE, or a psychology-related field, this role will give you invaluable insight into how children develop language—and how the right support can change their future.

About the School

Located in Birmingham, this inclusive and supportive primary school is committed to meeting the individual needs of all its pupils, particularly those with communication challenges and wider SEN. You’ll join a collaborative team of staff and work alongside external professionals such as speech and language therapists and educational psychologists.

Your Role as a Graduate Speech and Language Teaching Assistant

You will support children who have difficulties with:

  • Speech sound development


  • Expressive and receptive language


  • Social communication


  • Conditions such as autism, DLD (Developmental Language Disorder), or ADHD


    Key Responsibilities:
    • Delivering tailored 1:1 and small group interventions to develop communication skills


    • Supporting classroom learning by adapting tasks and vocabulary to suit children’s language levels


    • Implementing speech and language strategies set by therapists or the SENCO


    • Encouraging pupils to participate in speaking and listening activities


    • Tracking pupil progress and assisting with intervention planning


    • Building strong, supportive relationships with children to foster confidence and independence


      Is This the Right Role for You?

      This role would suit someone who is:

      • A graduate (2:1 or above) in Speech and Language Sciences, Linguistics, Psychology, Education, English, or a related subject


      • Interested in a career in speech and language therapy, SEN, or educational psychology


      • A patient, empathetic communicator who enjoys working with children


      • Proactive, flexible, and eager to learn from experienced professionals


      • Experienced working with children or young people (e.g. tutoring, mentoring, coaching, or volunteering)


        Why You’ll Love This Role
        • Gain school-based experience highly relevant for SALT, PGCEs, and psychology training


        • Learn directly from experienced SEN staff and external professionals


        • Build a strong foundation in understanding speech, language, and communication needs


        • Make a real impact on children’s learning, confidence, and long-term success


        • Join a warm, inclusive school team that values professional development and wellbeing
