Specialist SEN Teaching Assistant: Help Build a New Standard of Care and Education

Location: Chaldon, Surrey (Excellent links near Caterham/Whyteleafe)

Are you an experienced SEN practitioner ready to apply your expertise in a clinical and collaborative environment?

We invite you to join the founding staff of a premium, purpose-built Special Educational Needs (SEN) Secondary School, which launched in September 2025. This is a rare chance to bring your established skills to a new setting and influence the school's culture and success from its inception.

The Specialist Role

This new provision is dedicated to supporting young people aged 11-16 with complex needs related to social communication, emotional regulation, and sensory processing, typically associated with Autism.

The model is highly structured, featuring small class sizes, exceptional classroom support ratios, and a fully integrated multi-disciplinary intervention team (including therapists and clinical specialists).

The Teaching Assistant (TA) is a vital, senior support role focused on the practical application of tailored therapeutic and educational strategies.

Your Core Contributions:

• Strategic Support: Serving as a key operational link between classroom delivery and the multi-disciplinary team, helping pupils achieve their full learning and wellbeing potential.

• Complex Behaviour Management: Utilizing deep experience to expertly manage and adapt responses to behaviours that challenge, promoting stability, concentration, and a safe environment.

• Care and Independence: Confidently supporting necessary care needs and implementing strategies to foster independence and personal development.

• Curriculum Implementation: Collaborating with teachers to implement and adjust sophisticated learning activities that reinforce curriculum concepts within the context of a student's therapeutic plan.

• Professional Feedback: Providing detailed, nuanced feedback on pupil progress, behavioural data, and relationships to inform ongoing educational and therapeutic strategies.

• Safeguarding Leadership: Championing the highest standards of Safeguarding principles and Child Protection procedures across the provision.

Qualities of a Successful Specialist

We are seeking professionals who can hit the ground running, bringing a wealth of practical experience and a commitment to specialist SEN practice.

Essential Experience & Qualifications:

• Proven, substantial experience working within a relevant SEND Provision (e.g., Autism, SEMH, complex needs).

• Demonstrated expertise in managing a complex range of approaches to behaviours that challenge.

• Comprehensive understanding of Safeguarding and Child Protection procedures.

• Minimum Grade 4 (or equivalent) in GCSE Maths and English.

Highly Valued (Specialist/Advanced Skillset):

• A relevant qualification such as an L2/L3 award in supporting teaching and learning in schools or equivalent.

• Prior experience working within a multi-cultural, inclusive setting.

• Familiarity with clinical approaches (e.g., trauma-informed practice, sensory integration principles, communication aids).

A Generous Benefits Package for Experienced Professionals

Your commitment to our mission is secured by a robust package of professional and personal benefits:

• Financial Security: Enhanced Pension and Life Assurance.

• Professional Development: Fully funded training and qualifications to support continuous professional specialism and career advancement.

• Health and Lifestyle: Free membership to our Health Cash Back Plan (claim back money on services such as dental, optical, and physiotherapy), Perkbox (offering high street discounts), and an Employee Assistance Programme.
