Learning Support Assistant – Primary School based in West London

This lovely community school are on the search for a full-time Learning Support Assistant to work with a young boy with Challenging Behaviour who has recently been diagnosed with autism. 

This is an inclusive school, exuding a warmth and generosity of spirit that comes from their children and diverse school community. The school is set within its own campus, which includes a state of-the-art learning environment for children and adults where the Learning Support Assistant would be working. With approximately 400 children, including an outstanding centre for children with autism - the school provides an exceptional atmosphere for future teachers, Psychology graduates and SEN specialists.

In 2014 OFSTED judged both areas of provision as ‘Good’ in all categories. More recently, the school have been excited to enhance their offer of a new centre for two year old's, as well as the most recent completion of their STEM Lab.

This school in particular (one of our favourites!) is a UNICEF Rights Respecting School. Their culture revolves around ‘Who do you want to be?’ - preparing children with the qualities needed in life to be successful and happy. They have a strong focus on well-being, fitness and accessing the rights that they are all entitled to. This is on top of their high expectations for learning and skill development across all curriculum subjects. They are even holding culture tours to show off their ethos and to give prospective parents/carers an opportunity to see their school environment!

With this position in mind, your role as a Learning Support Assistant will be centred around the school's unique and innovative ethos. You will be spending allocated time within the classroom as an Learning Support Assistant, but will also provide hours of 1:1 tuition and learning time in the classroom's intervention area. Whilst a particular focus will surround attainment levels with the child, your role is based on nurturing and behaviour provision on a more social & emotional level - and will include working closely with the SENCO and the school's fabulous senior leadership group.

Learning Support Assistant - The Role

The SEN team are seeking a Learning Support Assistant who has experience working with autism and challenging behaviour.

The right Learning Support Assistant will:

  • Have experience providing specialist support to children with autism and challenging behaviour
  • Have experience working 1:1 and in small groups
  • Have experience liaising with parents and SENCO on the child’s progress
  • Experience working with children within a primary school

All applicants will require the appropriate qualifications and training for this role. Please see teachingpersonnel.com/faqs for details.

All pay rates quoted will be inclusive of 12.07% statutory holiday pay. This advert is for a temporary position. In some cases, the option to make this role permanent may become available at a later date.

Teaching Personnel is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. We offer all our registered candidates FREE child protection and prevent duty training. All candidates must undertake or have undertaken a valid enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. Full assistance provided.
