Learning Support Assistant (LSA) - Alternative Provision / SEMH / SEN
Location: Liverpool
Hours: Full-time
Contract: Long-term placements
Pay Rate: £90-£120 per day (dependent on experience)
Teaching Personnel is recruiting Learning Support Assistants to work across a range of Alternative Provision, SEMH, and specialist SEN schools across Liverpool. These full-time, long-term roles involve supporting pupils who require additional support to access education due to social, emotional, and behavioural needs or complex learning difficulties.
You will work closely with teachers and specialist staff to support pupils with a variety of needs including SEMH, ASD, ADHD, trauma-related behaviours, and moderate to complex learning difficulties. Many pupils in these settings benefit from smaller class sizes and a personalised approach to learning, meaning your role will be key in helping them engage with education, build confidence, and achieve positive outcomes both academically and personally.
This is a highly rewarding opportunity for individuals who are passionate about supporting vulnerable young people and helping them thrive in a supportive and inclusive learning environment.
