SEND Teaching Assistant

Flourish Education are looking for a caring and experienced SEND Teaching Assistant to join a welcoming primary school in Nuneaton from September.

This role will initially run until January, with the potential to extend, and would suit someone with previous experience supporting children with Autism and additional needs, particularly within a resource base or specialist setting.

You will support pupils on a 1:1 and small-group basis within the school's dedicated Autism Resource Base, helping them access learning, work towards individual targets and develop their communication, social and emotional skills.

Some pupils are non-verbal, so Makaton Level 1 would be an advantage but is not essential. Personal care may also be required.

As a SEND Teaching Assistant, you will:

• Provide 1:1 and small-group support within the resource base
• Support communication, social interaction and emotional regulation
• Adapt learning activities to meet individual needs
• Deliver personalised interventions and support strategies
• Work closely with teaching staff and the SEND team
• Promote pupils' confidence, independence and wellbeing

• Experience supporting children with Autism and additional needs
• Previous experience in a UK primary school or specialist setting
• A patient, nurturing and consistent approach
• A good understanding of SEND support strategies

• £92.56–£95.00 per day
• 12.07% holiday pay accrued into your holiday pot
• Pension contributions
• Free Safeguarding and Prevent Duty training
• Refer a Friend bonus scheme
• Dedicated consultant support throughout your placement

The school is easily commutable from Weddington, Stockingford, Attleborough, Whitestone and Hartshill, with onsite parking and good public transport links.

If you're looking for a rewarding SEND role where you can make a real difference, we'd love to hear from you!
