SEN Teaching Assistant
I am looking for a three experienced, dedicated and pro-active SEN Teaching Assistant candidates to join a top SEN School in Brent as soon as possible. This role will initially run through to the end of the academic year and would be extended into September for the duration of the next academic year subject to performance. Having worked with the schiool for nearly a decade i can assure you that good work is rewarded and permanent contracts will be offered before 12 months is up. I have two Learning Support Assistant positions available to start straight away based in a KS2 ASD class and one in an EYFS ASD/SLD class.
The SEN Teaching Assistant Jobs
Pupils at this Brent SEN school all have autism and/or complex learning needs. As a SEN Teaching Assistant you will be working with students aged between 4 - 11, all of whom have statements of Special Education Needs. Most of the children you will be working with have very limited communication skills, and some are completely non-verbal. You will be working either 1:1 with a particular student or supporting a class alongside a team of fellow LSAs and the class teacher.
In all ASD and SLD classes pupils are developmentally delayed and need support with communication as well as many tasks that require fince motor skills, command of complex processes or nuanced tasks. They will be working on an adapted EYFS/KS1 curriculum and will be working below the expectation for their age range. These pupils need friendly support, good routine, patience and encouragement to progress but they can make huge leaps forward given the right support
The SEN Teaching Assistant personal care duties could include:
- Changing the students
- Feeding orally
- Helping students to brush their teeth
- Supporting fine motor skills (using buttons & zips or writing)
