Nottingham HOPE Academy is a unique alternative educational provision in the City of Nottingham so if you’re interested, a call or visit to learn more about us is strongly encouraged!
We are seeking to appoint a highly motivated, enthusiastic, hardworking and flexible Teaching Assistant to join our team of dedicated staff. You will be an experienced Teaching Assistant who has worked in a specialist education setting, or within a mainstream and have substantial SEND experience.
This role will have a focus on planning and delivering an outreach programme for pupils with profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD) who are not attending school for health reasons. The curriculum is delivered in the home, or occasionally at the Children’s Hospital School, on a 1:1 basis. Candidates must have access to a car and business insurance included.

Knowledge of SEN is essential, alongside the ability to respond quickly and flexibly to the complex needs of our children and young people.

You will use your excellent interpersonal skills to build trusting relationships with students and their families, and then assess the attainment and progress of our students, in order to help them succeed.
