Are you a nurturing and resilient Teaching Assistant with experience supporting pupils with autism and behavioural needs?
TeacherActive is working with a welcoming and inclusive primary school in Salford to recruit a dedicated 1:1 Teaching Assistant. This role involves providing tailored support to a child with a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC) and associated challenging behaviour within a Key Stage 1 or Key Stage 2 classroom (exact year group TBC).

This is a full-time position and would suit someone with a calm, consistent and empathetic approach who can build strong relationships and support emotional regulation.

Key Responsibilities:

• Provide 1:1 classroom-based support to a pupil with ASC and behavioural needs

  
  

• Use strategies to support communication, sensory needs and emotional regulation

  
  

• Follow and contribute to behaviour support plans and EHCP targets

  
  

• Work closely with the class teacher, SENCo and external agencies

  
  

• Encourage independence, build trust and foster a safe, inclusive environment

  
  The Ideal Candidate Will:

  • Have previous experience working with children with autism and challenging behaviour

    
    

  • Be confident in managing behaviours calmly and positively

    
    

  • Be patient, reliable and emotionally resilient

    
    

  • Have strong communication and teamwork skills

    
    

  • Hold a Level 2 or 3 TA qualification – desirable, not essential

    
    

  • Unqualified applicants will be considered if they have 6+ months experience in a UK primary school setting

    
    What the School Offers:

    • A supportive and experienced SEN team

      
      

    • Opportunities for training and professional development

      
      

    • A strong safeguarding culture and structured support
