Specialist SEN Teaching Assistant - Specialist Primary Setting


Flexible or Fixed Days Available | Long-Term Opportunity

Are you an experienced, energetic and emotionally intelligent Teaching Assistant looking for a role where no two days are the same?

A highly respected specialist primary setting in Peckham is seeking a confident and adaptable SEN Teaching Assistant to support pupils with complex needs.

This opportunity offers flexibility in working patterns - whether you're looking for consistent fixed days each week or a more adaptable schedule to fit around other professional commitments.

For the right candidate, this role has genuine long-term potential.

Once both you and the school are confident the partnership is working well, a longer-term position will be offered, providing stability and continuity for you and the pupils you support.

The Role

You will work closely with pupils with a range of additional needs, supporting their learning, emotional regulation and social development. The school values adults who can bring positive energy, presence and emotional attunement into the classroom - professionals who understand how to read a room, hold attention and respond dynamically to changing situations.

The Successful Candidate Will:
  • Have at least 6 months of classroom experience, ideally within SEN
  • Be confident supporting pupils with complex or additional needs
  • Demonstrate strong behaviour management and de-escalation skills
  • Be calm, responsive and physically engaged when required
  • Bring creativity, resilience and strong communication skills
  • Be a genuine advocate for inclusive, child-centred education
Individuals with backgrounds in performance, coaching, youth work or other roles requiring strong presence, adaptability and teamwork often thrive in this environment.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Providing 1:1 and small group support for pupils with SEN
  • Supporting emotional regulation and promoting positive behaviour
  • Implementing structured routines while remaining flexible in approach
  • Assisting with differentiated learning activities
  • Encouraging movement, engagement and confidence-building
  • Working collaboratively with teachers, therapists and support staff
  • Maintaining high safeguarding standards at all times
About the School
  • A well-established specialist primary setting with a strong community ethos
  • Passionate and supportive leadership team
  • Highly collaborative staff culture
  • Focus on holistic development and pupil wellbeing
  • A dynamic, purposeful working environment
  • Commitment to professional development and staff support
This school is working exclusively with Horizon Teachers, who offer:
  • 4.9★ Google review rating from education professionals
  • Competitive pay rates
  • Full safeguarding clearance and training
  • A supportive, knowledgeable team guiding you through registration
  • Clear pathway to longer-term employment when the fit is right
