Are you based in BS13 or BS14 and passionate about supporting children with additional needs?

• Do you thrive in caring, inclusive school communities where every child is valued?

• Looking for a rewarding 1:1 role where you can make a meaningful impact each day?

TeacherActive is working closely with several warm, community-centred primary schools across Hartcliffe, Whitchurch, Hengrove and Stockwood, who are seeking compassionate and committed 1:1 SEND Teaching Assistants for September. These schools take pride in creating nurturing, supportive environments where pupils can grow emotionally, socially and academically — with Teaching Assistants playing a key part in that success.

About the Opportunities:

Across BS13 and BS14, our partner schools share a strong commitment to:

Inclusive, child-centred learning

Supportive and collaborative staff teams

Positive behaviour strategies

Personalised SEND provision

Welcoming atmospheres rooted in community values

You’ll be stepping into teams that truly appreciate the vital role a 1:1 SEND TA plays in a child’s development.

Your Role Will Include:

Providing dedicated 1:1 support to a pupil with additional needs

Creating a calm, safe and consistent environment where they feel understood and valued

Supporting their emotional regulation and social confidence

Helping deliver personalised learning based on EHCP goals

Working alongside SENCOs, class teachers and external professionals

Using positive behaviour support to guide and encourage progress

What We’re Looking For:

Experience supporting pupils with SEND (ideally in a 1:1 primary role)

A patient, nurturing approach with strong emotional awareness

Flexibility to adapt activities to meet individual needs

Confidence using positive behaviour support strategies

Level 3 or Level 4 qualification in Learning Support (or equivalent)

Enhanced Child-Only DBS on the update service (or willingness to apply)

Two recent references from educational settings

In return for the above you can expect to receive:

A dedicated team of consultants available 24/7 to help you with the easy onboarding process
Guaranteed Payment Scheme *Terms and Conditions apply*
CPD Courses and certificates as part of the My-Progression channel
Market leading rates of pay
TeacherActive Referral Scheme – Receive up to £100 when you refer a friend *Terms and Conditions apply*
