Job Description:

Hays Recruitment is supporting a local Bristol primary school in recruiting a motivated and experienced teaching assistant to support pupils with SEN within their resource provision. This is a long-term, full-time role.

Your new role: As a teaching assistant, you will support pupils with SEN within the KS1 and KS2 resource bases, working with pupils with ASD, Global delay, ADHD, and non-verbal needs. You will work under the instruction of the class teacher to create a safe, stimulating, and engaging learning environment, utilizing various learning equipment and managing behaviours effectively. You will implement positive behaviour techniques, including reward charts and reinforcement strategies. In escalated behaviour situations, you will ensure safety by using sensory rooms or removing pupils from triggering environments. You will also offer intervention and booster sessions in core subjects and liaise with teachers to align sessions with attainment needs.

What you'll need to succeed: You must have the right to work in the UK, recent experience supporting children and young people with complex and profound needs, and the ability to hold intervention sessions in core subjects such as phonics, reading, and spelling. An NVQ Level 2 or equivalent qualification is advantageous but not essential.

What you'll get in return: Support from a dedicated recruitment consultant, benefits including free training, DBS cost coverage, full holiday entitlement, competitive pay, access to exclusive vacancies, and a referral scheme.
