GSL Education are actively supporting a local school in Bournemouth in the search for a dedicated and compassionate Teaching Assistant who has British Sign Language experience and can therefore effectively support a pupil 1:1 within the classroom.
As a 1:1 Teaching Assistant, you will play a crucial role in providing essential support for the individual pupil, by ensuring that the input of the lesson is inclusive and tailored to their specific need, so that the pupil can access the curriculum and the learning successfully alongside their peers.

Key Responsibilities:
• Be an active member of the class, providing consistent support for the pupil and ensuring that they are able to engage and access the lessons
• The primary focus will be on providing personalised support to the pupil, reinforcing concepts and input through sign language, and assisting in their academic journey for a well-rounded and enjoyable educational experience.
• Work collaboratively with the class teacher to ensure that you are providing high-quality care for the 1:1 pupil, including creating materials to support their learning and progress.  
Skills and Attributes:
Excellent communication and collaboration skills both in verbal and sign language.
Empathy and patience in working with primary students with exceptional needs.
Commitment to creating an inclusive and supportive educational environment.
Patience, kindness and resilience, with a real commitment to the role
Certification of British Sign Language Level 3 or Makaton would be really beneficial
To work with GSL Education as an Academic Support Assistant, you should:
• Have the right to work in the UK.
• Possess an up-to-date CV with two relevant references from within the last 2 years.
• Have a DBS registered to the update service or be willing to apply for one with GSL Education.
Here at GSL Education, we offer competitive pay rates, bespoke service, and dedicated Consultants who will support you in securing your new role. Whether you are at the start of your career or seeking a more manageable work-life balance, rest assured we are here for you. As experienced Education Recruiters, we have helped numerous candidates gain the relevant experience and training required to excel in roles ranging from Specialist Support Staff to Senior Leadership positions.
