Summary

TEAM TEACH SEND TEACHING ASSISTANT / LSA – GLOUCESTERSHIRE – £445 P/W*

TeacherActive is proud to be working with a specialist SEND setting in Gloucestershire that provides high-quality education for pupils with complex needs, including autism, severe or profound learning difficulties, sensory processing differences, and behaviours that challenge. The school offers a highly personalised, supportive environment where pupils can regulate, communicate, and engage positively in learning.

We are looking for a TEAM TEACH SEND Teaching Assistant / LSA who is compassionate, resilient, and child-centred. This is an exciting opportunity for anyone with experience or transferable skills working with children, young people, or vulnerable groups, including those from teaching, support, care, or therapeutic backgrounds. You will help pupils access a bespoke curriculum, supporting not only their academic progress but also their communication, emotional regulation, sensory needs, and social development.

Every small step matters in this setting. As a TEAM TEACH SEND Teaching Assistant / LSA, you will work alongside teachers, therapists, and other professionals to deliver structured routines, sensory activities, and individualised strategies that help pupils feel safe, settled, and ready to learn. Using a calm, consistent approach, you will support pupils to manage anxieties, develop independence, and build positive relationships.

You may already be Team Teach qualified or have completed Team Teach training in the past – we welcome applicants with a willingness to develop their skills further.

What we’re looking for:

  • Team Teach experience (current or past qualification) or willingness to train


  • Experience or transferable skills supporting children or young people with complex SEND, autism, or behaviours that challenge


  • A calm, nurturing, and resilient approach, able to remain consistent during challenging moments


  • Confidence working as part of a multi-professional team


  • A proactive attitude and commitment to promoting independence, communication, and emotional wellbeing


  • Ideally, a driving licence or access to transport


    What we offer:

    • A dedicated team of consultants available 24/7 to support your placement


    • Guaranteed Payment Scheme (T&Cs apply)


    • Access to CPD courses and SEND-specific training via My-Progression


    • Competitive, market-leading rates of pay


    • Refer-a-friend bonus of up to £100 (T&Cs apply)


    • PAYE payment system with no hidden fees
