Job description

Axcis are looking for an compassionate, caring and clear‑headed individual with a calm and empathetic nature to work in a PMLD special school in Birmingham. The school is looking to recruit an unqualified teaching assistant to join their proactive team. This is a full‑time position for the remainder of the current academic year. The perfect TA will support a specific child or children on a 1:1 or small group basis, across a range of different subjects, therefore you do not need in depth subject knowledge, and instead, skills/experience in working with individuals with Profound and Moderate Learning Difficulties (PMLD) and/or medical needs are highly desirable. This is the perfect opportunity for someone looking to make a huge positive impact on the lives of individuals learning about the world around them! The role will include personal and/or intimate care and individuals may have medical needs, therefore candidates from care backgrounds would be ideal. INDMID
