SEN (ASC) Teaching Assistant
Are you a Teaching Assistant with experience supporting children with Special Educational Needs? Then this could be the role for you!
Teaching Personnel are currently working with a large primary school based in Bradford, who are seeking new support staff.
We are therefore seeking an experienced support staff member to support children with Special Educational Needs. This role could involve working across Key Stages, but will be mainly based in KS1. Extra funding is being used within schools to add extra support
You will work with SEN students identified with ASC (autistic spectrum condition), children with mental health issues and children needing speech and language support, on both a 1:1 basis and with small groups and will contribute towards a purposeful learning environment by supporting classroom teachers in teaching and learning.

The ideal SEN Teaching Assistant would be;
- experienced supporting children with ASC/Speech and Language
- have a good knowledge of behaviour management techniques
- be patient and sensitive
- be able to motivate children who are disengaged from their learning
- experienced supporting children across the Key Stages
