Job Title: Special Needs Teaching Assistant

Contract: Full-Time (Temporary to Permanent options)

Are you energetic, creative, and ready to make a real difference?

Join an "Outstanding" environment in Exeter where play, sensory exploration, and specialized care come together. We are seeking a Special Educational Needs (SEN) Teaching Assistant to support pupils with additional needs within a mainstream primary school.

The Role:

This isn't your typical classroom role. You will be the helping hand and the encouraging voice for children with sensory, physical, and medical needs. You will spend time within the classroom and supporting 1:1.

You will:

• Support core learning in Phonics, Literacy, and Numeracy tailored to individual abilities.
• Dive into creative play—if you’re happy getting stuck in with painting, Play-Doh, and music, you’ll fit right in.
• Work within the SEN unit on the school site where all children have EHCPs

What we are looking for:

You don’t need years of experience, but you do need the right heart. We want someone who is:

• Positive & Energetic: You can bring a smile to the classroom every day.
• Confident: Ready to support pupils with complex physical or social needs.
• Ambitious: Looking to take advantage of ongoing training and a clear career pathway.

Why Join This School:

• Hours: 08:30 – 15:30
• Support: Comprehensive ongoing training provided—perfect for those looking to start a career in SEN or within primary schools
• Flexibility: We have both temporary and permanent contracts available

If you are a compassionate individual looking to start ASAP, we want to hear from you. Help us turn "small steps" into "big milestones" for our pupils.
