Alternative Provision Teaching Assistant

Alternative Provision Teaching Assistant – Hastings
Pink Tile Education are recruiting for an Alternative Provision Teaching Assistant for a specialist setting in Hastings supporting pupils who are not currently thriving in mainstream school.
This is a specific Hastings provision working with pupils who may have experienced exclusions, disrupted education, anxiety, SEMH needs, behaviour challenges or low engagement with learning.
The school needs a Teaching Assistant who can be relational, resilient and consistent. You will be working with small groups and individual pupils, supporting them with learning, behaviour, confidence and daily routines.
This is not a sit-at-the-back-of-the-classroom Teaching Assistant role. The Hastings school needs someone proactive who can spot when a pupil is starting to dysregulate, step in early and help them get back on track.
You may have experience in education, youth work, mentoring, prison/justice settings, care, sports coaching, residential support or behaviour work.
Temporary, permanent and temp-to-permanent opportunities are available.
