Carshalton, Greater London, United Kingdom Ribbons & Reeves Full time

Job Description

Are you a resilient and enthusiastic SEND Teaching Assistant with a passion for supporting children with Autism and complex needs?

A welcoming and inclusive primary school in Sutton is looking for a dedicated Learning Support Assistant to join their Year 1 team, working closely with two pupils who require 1:1 and 2:1 support.

Why you'll love this role:

  • Opportunity to make a real difference to two children's daily experiences and long-term progress.
  • Ongoing support and guidance from the class teacher, SENCo and external specialists.
  • A chance to develop your knowledge of Autism, communication systems and sensory regulation.

Both children have significant developmental delays and are currently working at around a two-year-old level. They need patient, nurturing and consistent support to help them engage with learning and daily routines. You'll play a key role in helping them communicate using core boards and other visual tools, as well as implementing sensory-based and play-focused activities that encourage progress in all areas of development.

The ideal candidate will have either formal training in Autism and Challenging Behaviour or substantial hands-on experience supporting children with complex SEND. You'll need to be calm under pressure, confident in using de-escalation strategies, and committed to helping every child feel understood and valued.

Why this school is a great place to work:

  • A warm, inclusive ethos that celebrates every child's achievements.
  • A leadership team who value and invest in their support staff.
  • Regular CPD and training opportunities tailored to SEND support.
  • A collaborative, friendly team who share a genuine passion for helping children thrive.

If you are enthusiastic, empathetic and eager to build a rewarding career in SEND education, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply today to join a nurturing school where every small step forward is celebrated.
