Job description

Are you a qualified Level 3 TA looking for a new challenge in Birmingham?

I am currently recruiting for a SEND TA to work in a mainstream primary school in North Birmingham. This role will be supporting a pupil with Global Developmental Delay & Speech and Language difficulties on a full‑time, one‑to‑one basis. This role is due to start in January and will continue until the end of the academic year (and may continue beyond this date). The pupil is in Y2 but working to the EYFS curriculum, therefore knowledge of EYFS and KS1 curriculum is essential.

The school encompasses a nurturing environment where pupils are encouraged to lead their own learning. You will encourage this ethos through guided learning sessions and creative intervention with the pupil. The ultimate goal is for the pupil to be reintegrated into the mainstream classroom.

To be successful in this role you will require:

• Level 3 + Teaching Assistant Qualification (NVQ / CACHE preferable)
• Experience supporting pupils with SEND on a one‑to‑one basis
• Experience of MAKATON is preferable but not essential
• Excellent working knowledge of the EYFS and KS1 curriculum
• Recent primary school experience within the last 2 years

This is an excellent opportunity to work at one of the best schools in the area and secure a full‑time post in January.

I can offer very good rates of pay and I will be available 24/7 for you should you need my help with anything.

I am keen to talk to teachers who are interested in working this forward‑thinking school. If this is the job for you please apply above and I will be in touch. If you are interested in finding out more please call (phone number removed).
