Behaviour Teaching Assistant - Islington
£100-£115 per day | Full-Time | Term-Time Only | Long-Term
In a performing arts school, students express themselves loudly - through movement, music, drama, and sometimes through behaviour when emotions feel too big to manage.
Some young people walk into school carrying more than their script or instrument. They carry anxiety, frustration, or life experiences that spill out in ways that don't always fit neatly into a classroom. What looks like "challenging behaviour" is often a need to be understood.
We're working with a vibrant secondary Performing Arts school in Islington who are looking for a Behaviour Teaching Assistant who truly understands this - someone calm, patient, and emotionally intelligent, who can support students to regulate, reflect, and re-engage with learning.
This role would suit someone who values creativity, understands emotional regulation, and wants to be a consistent, trusted adult for young people who need it most.
* Supporting students 1:1 or in small groups who struggle with behaviour, regulation, or engagement
* Acting as a calm, grounding presence during moments of dysregulation or heightened emotion
* Helping students reset, reflect on choices, and return to lessons ready to learn
* Supporting pupils within lessons, rehearsals, or practical spaces such as drama studios
* Working closely with pastoral staff, SENCOs, and teaching staff to ensure consistent support
* Encouraging positive self-expression through clear boundaries and supportive conversations
* Recognising and celebrating progress - even when it comes in small, quiet steps
* Stay calm under pressure and don't take behaviour personally
* Have experience in youth work, mentoring, SEN, SEMH, PRUs, performing arts settings, or similar (desirable, not essential)
* Understand the balance between empathy and firm, consistent boundaries
* Believe behaviour is communication, not defiance
* Want to work in a creative school where individuality and expression are valued
* Are committed to building trust over time and being a reliable presence
This role isn't about "controlling" behaviour - it's about understanding it, supporting emotional regulation, and helping young people find healthier ways to express themselves, both on and off the stage.
If you're someone who believes in second chances, calm conversations, and the power of consistency, we'd love to hear from you
