Your new company

Hays Recruitment is proud to support a Warrington-based high school that is easily accessible via public transport. They are looking to appoint a motivated, experienced, and qualified teaching assistant to support a pupil in KS3 with a dual diagnosis of ASD and SEMH.

You will ensure they can access the full curriculum in a safe, engaging, and inclusive environment. Your responsibilities include implementing bespoke interventions across core subjects, incorporating EHCP requirements into learning, and using positive behaviour strategies like brain breaks, sensory circuits, and positive reinforcement. You will also manage challenging behaviours by providing calming time outside the classroom when needed.

• Experience supporting SEMH and/or ASD
• Experience implementing positive behaviour strategies
• Experience delivering academic interventions at KS3 level (minimum)
