United Kingdom Veritas Education Recruitment Ltd Full time

London | Preston | Leeds | Overseas enquiries@veritas-education.com

Are you are looking to make a difference in the lives of children with Special Educational Needs (SEN)? We are looking for proactive and empathetic individuals who are looking for a new opportunity for September. Whether you already have experience working as a Teaching Assistant, experience working with individuals with SEN, or experience working with children or young people in some capacity, we would love to talk with you.

As a SEN Learning Support Assistant your focus will be on guiding and working with students who need a bit more help, as well as supporting the needs of the class. You will play a crucial role in supporting the learning and development of students with SEN within a mainstream secondary environment. Your role could involve working within a specific SEN department, within multiple different age groups/subject groups, or with individual students on a intervention basis. As an SEN Learning support assistant no day is the same, and the role would best suit someone who adapts easily and is proactive.

Can it be challenging sometimes? Most definitely - but it is also incredibly rewarding. At Veritas we strongly believe that our hardworking LSA's deserve to be fairly compensated, and we will always be upfront with you about the pay, the school and the ins and outs of the role itself. If you feel like you have the qualities to be a SEN Learning Support Assistant, or would like to discuss the role further, then please apply below.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Providing one-to-one or small group support to students with SEN, both in and out of the classroom.
  • Implementing tailored learning strategies and interventions as directed by the SENCO (Special Educational Needs Coordinator).
  • Collaborating with teachers and other support staff to ensure the individual needs of students are met effectively.
  • Assisting with the planning and delivery of differentiated activities to support student progress.
  • Promoting a positive and inclusive learning environment where all students feel valued and supported.

Requirements:

  • Previous experience working in an SEN role, preferably within a school setting.
  • Enhanced DBS on the update service
  • Right to work in the UK
  • Strong understanding of various Special Educational Needs and associated support strategies.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build rapport with students, staff, and parents/carers.
  • Patient, empathetic, and adaptable approach to supporting the diverse needs of students.
  • Relevant qualifications or training in SEN support (desirable but not essential).
