Looking for a Change from Nursery Work? Join a Special School! Teaching Assistant & Support Roles - Immediate Starts Available
Are you currently working in a private day nursery and feeling ready for something new? If you love supporting children but want better hours, more structure, meaningful roles, and higher pay, a move into a special school could be the perfect next step.Special schools absolutely value people with Early Years and nursery backgrounds. Your nurturing nature, patience, creativity, and hardworking approach are exactly what their pupils need - and your skillset transfers beautifully.
I work with a wide range of special schools across the Black Country and West Midlands, and they are always keen to welcome individuals with EYFS experience.
⭐ Why Make the Move to a Special School?✨ Better Working Hours
- No long nursery days
- Typically 8:30am-3:30pm, Monday to Friday
- Evenings and weekends free
- Much smoother work-life balance
✨ Higher Pay
- Pay rates are often higher than private day nurseries
- I can confidently justify strong rates based on your experience
✨ Special Schools Love Early Years Staff
- EYFS staff are naturally nurturing, patient and intuitive
- You're used to supporting speech, language, routines and emotional regulation
- Your creativity and resilience fit perfectly within SEN settings
- Your experience helps children feel safe, understood and supported
✨ Flexibility That Works for You
- Choose full-time, part-time or day-to-day
- Try different schools to find your perfect fit
- And if a setting isn't right? That's fine - we have plenty more options.
✨ Meaningful, Rewarding WorkYou may support children with:
- Autism
- Complex needs
- Learning difficulties
- Social, emotional or behavioural needs
You'll see your impact every day and build genuine connections with pupils.✨ Training & Progression
- SEN training provided
- Behaviour support development
- Routes into TA Level 3, HLTA or future teaching pathways
- Clear career progression rarely available in nurseries
⭐ What You'll Be Doing
- Supporting small classes or 1:1 learners
- Helping with learning activities, sensory play and structured routines
- Encouraging communication, independence and confidence
- Working closely with teachers, therapists and pastoral teams
⭐ Who We're Looking ForPeople with experience in:
- Private day nurseries
- Pre‑schools
- Early Years / EYFS
- Supporting children's development
If you're caring, reliable and love helping children thrive, you'll be a brilliant fit.
⭐ Ready for a Fresh Start?
If you're looking for better hours, better pay, more support, and a genuinely rewarding role, get in touch. I can get you registered quickly and start finding the right school for you straight away.
