Are you a compassionate and motivated Learning Support Assistant looking for a role where you can truly make a difference?

We are delighted to be recruiting a full-time LSA to join a warm, welcoming specialist school in the Farnborough area. The school supports older primary to young secondary-aged children who benefit from calm, nurturing and consistent support—particularly pupils experiencing emotionally based school avoidance (EBSA) and social, emotional or behavioural challenges.

Why you’ll love this role:

• A friendly, close-knit team who value collaboration and care

• The chance to make a real, lasting impact on children who need extra understanding

• A calm, supportive environment focused on emotional wellbeing

• A temp to perm pathway, moving onto a salaried school contract

About you:

• Experience as a Learning Support Assistant or in a similar child-focused role

• A calm, confident and nurturing approach

• Passion for supporting children with SEMH, behavioural needs or EBSA

• Reliable, proactive and emotionally resilient
