Learning Support Assistant
Blandford Forum-DT11 1EH

We are looking for a Learning Support Assistant in Blandford Forum. This work is available 5 days a week and the hours are 8:30-15:30. No training is required, as you will learn 'on the job'. The children identified have a variety of SEND needs, mostly Autism. We can provide some training, but initiative and resilience are key skills needed for this type of work.

Working closely with teaching staff, you will support the pupil during the day with their lessons, and also in their interactions with their peers. You would be using Autism Teaching Techniques such as "Now and Next". This work is one-to-one, working with one identified pupil. However, at times, there will be a need for you to work with a small group of children; for example to help with reading.

If you have worked in a care setting, security, probation or social services, you may have key transferable skills.

If you are sporty, crafty, or creative, then we want to hear from you.

Please do get in touch, if this type of work interests you, we are always available for an informal chat.

Responsibilities and duties:

· Supporting 1:1 in class

· Help the students to access the curriculum and tailor the lesson activity to their level of ability

· Build a strong relationship with the pupils and teaching staff to ensure that the pupils are achieving their potential

· Be a support to the students when they are struggling, and help them to calm down and remain focussed

Essential criteria:

· Previous experience working with individuals with SEN/Autism/Complex Needs/SEMH is desirable

· Have a right to work in the UK (A Valid Visa)

· At least one recent child-based reference and relevant DBS/ Police checks.

What can Five Education offer you?

· One of the best supply experiences in The South West - check out our google reviews

· Free specialised, in-person training in areas such as Team Teach, Makaton, PMLD/SLD Awareness, Autism Awareness, and more.

· Free DBS (refunded when you work 5 days).

· Subsidised initial DBS cost (we pay £20, you pay £30).

· Specialist support/ mentoring while you are working.

The pay rate is £12.81* an hour. The day is 7 hours with an unpaid 30 min lunch break. Your daily rate of pay would be £83.29* but with a potential to earn more based on level of experience. *Including holiday pay

If you think this could be a job for you, please get in touch to find out more. We are always available for an informal chat if you want to find out more about whether this role is suited to you.

Pay: Five Education operates a PAYE payroll; this is the most transparent way to be paid with no hidden fees such as admin fee or employers NI. We are also proud to be an accredited Living Wage employer. Please note pay rate is for illustration and does include holiday pay.

Vetting: Five Education is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all of the staff we employ to share this commitment. Successful applicants will be required to undergo checks including reference checks, TRA checks and will need to have a DBS; there will also be a face-to-face interview.

We welcome and encourage job applications from people of all backgrounds. We particularly welcome applications from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) candidates as they are currently under-represented at this level.
