Consultant jobs in Spain

Five Education is seeking a number of teaching assistants to work in a variety of schools in and around the Chew Valley area of North Somerset, starting from September 2025.

You will provide tailored support to students with specific educational needs, fostering their academic and personal development. Experience is not necessary, but successful candidates will be compassionate, resilient and comfortable handling challenging behaviour. This role would ideally suit psychology graduates wanting to learn more about cognitive and behavioural issues, as well as those who have a background in support work or care.

As well as seeking experienced educators, we are also ready to assist compassionate and eager individuals in gaining vital experience. Whilst working for Five Education, you will benefit from training such as Makaton, PMLD Awareness and Team Teach, and have a dedicated consultant who will help you every step of the way: Kate - that's me!
