  • Full time
  • September start

Long-term Teachers are working with a fantastic specialist school in Paignton who support students aged that cannot have their needs met in mainstream education.

They specialise in supporting students with an educational health care plan in relation to social, emotional and mental health needs. You will be part of an amazing team that provides a personalised approach, allowing learners to reach their full potential. Not only will you be responsible for facilitating their academic development, but you will help to nurture them to significantly improve their chances in life.

The role involves offering classroom support to both students and staff in the classroom and you may be working 1:1 with students with additional needs. You will also be responsible for making sure the classroom is a tidy, positive environment for students to be working in. This includes creating display boards and preparing resources prior to lessons.

Previous experience working in a special needs school is desirable, however if you have worked with SEN students within a mainstream school, this will suffice. You must also have a strong understanding of the needs of the students, particularly SEMH.

This will be a full time position, working Monday to Friday, term time only. There will be an opportunity to progress into a permanent position, if you demonstrate to be an excellent addition to the team.

Working with Long-term Teachers:

We are an independent agency working with Nurseries, Primary, Secondary and Special Schools.

LTT was founded with the aim of creating a genuine, transparent and straightforward service to help candidates secure their next role. We place a huge emphasis on delivering an exceptional service where you will be supported, listened to and valued throughout.

Your dedicated consultant will invest time to understand your experience, skill-set and what your ideal role looks like. You will have frequent updates with your progress through compliance, applications for specific roles as well as receiving additional information on roles which we feel may be of interest to you.

We are proud members of the REC and we have the highest standard of compliance. Working with us means you will get the very best support and guidance through the clearance process from your own specific point of contact from our in-house compliance team.

In addition you will receive:

  • Guarantee Pay Scheme opportunities
  • Permanent job roles
  • Support and advice during the clearance and onboarding process
  • Working to Agency Workers Regulations
  • Interview preparation, advice and support
  • Statutory employment rights, such as; sick pay, holiday pay, maternity and paternity pay
