SEN Teaching Assistant - SEMH Specialist (Day-to-Day Supply)

Location: Plymouth

Role: Flexible Day-to-Day Cover

Are you looking for a rewarding role in education that fits around your schedule? Do you have the resilience and heart to support students with Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH) needs?

We are seeking adaptable and experienced SEN Teaching Assistants to join our Plymouth supply team. This is a perfect opportunity for those who want to make a real impact in specialist Primary and Secondary settings without the commitment of a long-term contract.

The Flexibility of Day-to-Day Supply

As a supply TA, you have total control over your diary. You will be called upon to support specialist schools in Plymouth when they need expert SEMH cover.

  • No Planning, No Stress: Show up, support the pupils, and leave the paperwork behind at the end of the day.

  • Variety: Work across a range of local Primary and Secondary specialist schools and Alternative Provisions.

  • Impact: Provide vital stability for students who need a calm, consistent, and supportive adult during their school day.

What We're Looking For

  • SEMH Expertise: You must be comfortable and experienced in managing challenging behaviours and supporting emotional regulation.

  • Calm Under Pressure: Ability to use de-escalation techniques effectively in high-pressure moments.

  • Adaptability: Happy to work with Primary-aged children one day and Secondary teens the next.

  • Reliability: Schools in Plymouth rely on our TAs to be punctual and proactive.

Why Choose Supply Work?

  • Work-Life Balance: You choose which days you are available.

  • Competitive Pay: Earn a great daily rate with weekly pay.

  • Networking: Get your foot in the door at the best specialist schools in the area.
