Job description

Teaching Assistants Wanted – Leeds (East & North East )

Full-time | 32.5 hours/week | Family-friendly hours

If your ideal job involves making a difference, having a laugh, and clocking off in time for the school run—keep reading.

We’re on the lookout for brilliant Teaching Assistants to join a specialist school in North-West Bradford. It’s a setting full of heart, humour, and pupils with a range of needs (including Autism and complex learning profiles). Classes are small, the team is mighty, and yes—it’s easy to get to by public transport.

What you’ll be doing:

• Supporting pupils in the classroom (mostly 6–9 per group) and helping create a safe, calm, and engaging environment.

• Being a second pair of hands (and eyes!) to the classroom teacher.

• Helping with activities, prep, and making sure everything’s ready to roll.

• Growing your skills and confidence working in SEND settings.

You’ll fit in if:

• You’re calm, patient, and ready to learn.

• You’ve got a good sense of humour and a big heart.

• You’re up for working closely with an amazing team—including behaviour support, pastoral leads, and SEN specialists.

• You’ve got (or are happy to get) an enhanced DBS for Child & Adult Workforce on the Update Service.

Why you’ll love it here:

Friendly, supportive staff who’ve got your back
A chance to genuinely change lives—while learning loads yourself
Hours that actually work for family life
Free training (including our amazing Thrive course!)
Weekly pay through PAYE—no umbrella faff

And let’s not forget the joy of helping a pupil crack a tricky task, try something new, or simply smile. That’s the stuff that sticks with you.

Interested? Hit apply with your CV and a short note. We’ll be in touch for a chat about what’s next. Roles like this don’t hang around long!

Go on, make Mondays feel meaningful again.
