Eccles, Salford, United Kingdom Teaching Personnel Full time
About the Role:

We are seeking a dedicated and compassionate Teaching Assistant to join our team at a specialist provision for students with Social Emotional Mental Health (SEMH) needs. As a key member of our support team, you will play a vital role in helping students overcome barriers to learning caused by anxiety, depression, and other emotional difficulties.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Provide individual and small group support to students who are struggling to engage in class, helping them find new ways to connect with their learning.
  • Help students manage their emotions, teaching them practical coping strategies and resilience skills that they can apply both in and outside of school.
  • Support students to develop their self-esteem and social skills, empowering them to participate more fully in school life and achieve their potential.
  • Collaborate with teachers, the SEN/SEMH team, and external professionals to implement tailored support plans and interventions that help students stay on track.
  • Foster a calm and nurturing environment where students feel safe to express themselves, ask for help, and work through their emotional and academic challenges.
  • Regularly assess student wellbeing and progress, adapting your support to ensure each student is getting the best chance to succeed.
What We Offer:
  • A supportive environment with a team committed to SEMH support.
  • Ongoing development opportunities, including regular training in mental health support and behaviour management strategies.
  • The chance to make a genuine difference to students who are at risk of falling behind or becoming completely disengaged from education.
Requirements:
  • Experience working with young people dealing with mental health issues, including anxiety, depression, or behavioural challenges.
  • A compassionate, flexible approach with the ability to inspire and motivate students who may feel disconnected from their learning.
  • Strong team player with the ability to collaborate with teachers, mental health professionals, and families.
  • Relevant qualifications, such as Level 2/3 in Supporting Teaching and Learning or Mental Health First Aid, are a bonus but not essential.

If you are passionate about helping students with SEMH needs rebuild their confidence and find motivation, we would love to hear from you. Please send your CV and our team will be in touch to discuss how you can make a positive, lasting impact in this role.
