We pride ourselves on being an ethical supply agency, delivering quality service to both clients and candidates.

Minimum requirements for consideration include:

1. Ideally, a qualification in Support Teaching and Learning (not essential)
2. An enhanced DBS check on the update service (or willingness to apply for one)
3. Experience supporting pupils with SEND (desirable)

We value working with schools passionate about their students and staff, and many SEND Learning Support Assistants are employed at these schools, fostering a positive, nurturing environment.

In return, you will receive:

• Support from a highly skilled, dedicated SEND specialist consultant
• Competitive pay rates
• Access to free online training and CPD opportunities

If you're interested in working with Aspire People in the Birmingham area, please apply above, and I will be in touch to discuss further.
