About the role
Are you driven by the belief that every student deserves a champion? We are looking for a compassionate and resilient Teaching Assistant to join a premier specialist school near Cranleigh. This isn't just a classroom job; it's an opportunity to be the breakthrough in a young person's education.
Why This School?
Located in a stunning rural setting, our partner school is a sanctuary of learning for students with diverse special educational needs. They don't just "manage" needs; they celebrate milestones. You'll join a team that priorities collaboration, professional growth, and-most importantly-the well-being of its students.
Your Impact
As a vital part of the classroom ecosystem, you will:
Bridge the Gap: Work 1-on-1 or in small groups to make complex lessons accessible and engaging.
Be the Support: Assist teachers in crafting an environment where students feel safe to take risks and learn.
Track the Wins: Monitor progress and provide insights that help shape individual learning journeys.
Build Connections: Develop meaningful rapport with students and provide a supportive link for their families.
Who You Are
We are looking for someone who "gets it"-someone who understands that patience and empathy are just as important as academic support.
Experienced: You have a solid track record of supporting young people with SEN.
Communicative: You can connect with students, staff, and parents with ease and clarity.
Safety-First: You have a rock-solid understanding of safeguarding protocols.
Mobile: Crucial Requirement: Due to our beautiful but remote rural location, you must have a valid UK driving license and access to your own vehicle.
Local: Please note, we are currently unable to sponsor overseas candidates.
The Essentials
Role: Permanent, Full-Time
Location: Near Cranleigh (Rural)
Requirement: Enhanced DBS (processed upon offer) and own transport.

If you have the heart for SEN and the drive to make a difference, we want to meet you.
