Community Teaching Assistant

4 weeks ago

Leicester, United Kingdom MacIntyre Charity Full time

**Have you considered a career in education? Could you inspire young people with learning disabilities or autism to grow and develop? Every day is different but one thing is the same: the sense of achievement you will feel as you watch young people blossom into adulthood.**

Due to growth, we are looking for additional **Community Teaching Assistants **in the Leicester** area. **You'll be joining a great team of tutors and facilitators, working 35 hours a week, 38 weeks a year.

Come and add your chapter to our success stories

**Job Outline**

Our Teaching Assistants work mostly out in the community rather than in a classroom setting. You will deliver bespoke education programmes to the learners you're working with. You'll support them to work towards their education targets and learn practical life skills such as ICT, shopping, cooking etc. Some young people attend work experience or college.

The work is both challenging and inspiring and you are ultimately supporting a young person to prepare for their transition into adult life. We will provide you with an extensive and ongoing training programme and dedicated local support from your Team Coordinator.

You may be supporting someone like Harriet*, who has a speech impediment & social anxiety, this has made it difficult for her to engage in a classroom environment. She was often disruptive and her behaviour led to her getting excluded from school and she spent nearly a year out of education.

She was referred to No Limits who identified the communication barriers in place & worked to overcome these. Harriet is very tech-savvy and enjoyed using a tablet, No Limits utilised this technology to support her in making choices, regulating emotions & structuring her day. She began to use her communication device more regularly and in different scenarios - such as ordering food at a café or choosing sessions that would interest & engage her.

No limits built on this and introduced other techniques to enhance her communication. Harriet now attends college days with MacIntyre, as part of her transition, where her confidence and engagement are improving.

**About us**

MacIntyre is a national charity which supports over 1,200 people with a learning disability and/or autism.

We were founded in 1966 by the visionary parent of a child with disabilities and have been growing steadily ever since. We celebrate and develop everyone’s unique gifts, talents and contributions.

No Limits is our further education division, providing bespoke education programmes to children and young people for whom more traditional learning environments are not appropriate.

**What we need from you**

Perhaps you’ve worked in special education, as a Learning Support Assistant or Teaching Assistant. Perhaps you've been a Support Worker in the social care sector. However, experience is not essential. For us, underlying ability and attitude are just as important as background and experience.

If you have not worked in the field of education before then please don’t be put off. We can provide all of the specialist training you need, but we can't train you to be kind, to have initiative, to be friendly and patient; and those are essential qualities for this work.

**You must be a driver with your own transport**, willing and able to travel across the area, supporting young people from their own homes. Reasonable mileage is reimbursed.

GCSEs (or equivalent) minimum C grade in English and Mathematics are essential.

**Training and Development**

At Macintyre we fully support your training and development. We know it can be daunting to start a new job, and not everyone learns the same way, so throughout your probation we will provide you with a mixture of eLearning, face-to-face training and mentoring support whilst on the job.

But it doesn't stop there - throughout your career with us you will have access to our own dedicated in house Learning and Development team, Quality Specialists and HR Teams. These teams, along with your Manager, will provide you with opportunities to learn and develop professionally as well as enabling and supporting you to achieve professional qualifications and career progression opportunities - all free of charge.

**Pay and Rewards**

We provide a range of benefits to reward and thank our staff which includes:

- 5.6 weeks' annual leave including statutory public holidays
- Workplace Pension scheme - MacIntyre will contribute 3% of your salary to all eligible employees
- MacIntyre Staff Savings Scheme
- Employee Assistance Plan (EAP) to support your health and wellbeing
- Health Cash Plan which provides money back on core health treatments such as: optical, dental, physiotherapy, chiropody (at reduced cost)
- MacIntyre Sick Pay (qualifying period)
- Life assurance scheme offering valuable benefits to your dependents
- MacIntyre Rewards Scheme which recognises and rewards staff
- MacIntyre Perks which offers up to 6% discount off leadin
