Summary
Hays Education is working in partnership with a forward-thinking secondary school in Accrington to recruit a committed SEND Teaching Assistant to join their team after the October half-term.
Your new role
You will be supporting students with special educational needs across Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4, working closely with the SENCO and wider pastoral team. Your role will involve providing tailored support to pupils with a range of SEND needs, assisting in lessons, delivering targeted interventions, and monitoring and reporting on pupil progress. You'll help foster an inclusive and supportive learning environment where every student can thrive.
What you'll need to succeed
To be successful in this role, you should have experience supporting SEND students in a school or similar setting, along with a solid understanding of learning difficulties and behavioural needs. Strong communication and teamwork skills are essential, as is the ability to build positive relationships with both pupils and staff. While relevant qualifications such as a Level 2/3 Teaching Assistant certificate or SEN-specific training are desirable, a proactive and compassionate approach is equally valued.
What you'll get in return
In return, you'll benefit from a long-term placement with the potential to become permanent, a competitive daily rate, and ongoing support from your dedicated Hays consultant. You'll also have access to professional development opportunities, including safeguarding and CPD training, and the chance to make a meaningful impact in the lives of students who need it most.
