Are you looking for a rewarding role where you can make a real difference to young people? We are looking for a Teaching Assistant to join a welcoming SEND school in Yate, supporting early years aged pupils with autism and learning needs. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who is patient, caring and genuinely wants to help children feel confident, included and ready to learn. You do not need previous experience as a Teaching Assistant. We are particularly interested in hearing from graduates, carers, support workers, youth workers and sports coaches who can bring the right personality, values and motivation to the role. You will work closely with teachers and other support staff to help pupils take part in lessons, develop communication skills, build independence and enjoy their learning. You will need to be calm, consistent and able to build positive relationships with children who may need additional support. The learning environment has a strong focus on inclusion, communication and language, purposeful adult interaction and helping every child make progress.
