An Alternative Provision in Yeovil are looking for a dedicated and passionate Teaching Assistant to assist in supporting their staff and special needs pupils with severe and complex needs. This includes learning difficulties, communication difficulties and challenging behaviour.
The ideal candidate will have experience working with special needs. The TA will need to be happy to carry out some personal care, so a background in Healthcare would be helpful.

- Be able to multitask and have the flexibility to help in a variety of situations.
- Be happy to work in small groups and on a one to one basis.
A typical school day will start at 08:30 and finish at 15:30. The staff are friendly and supportive, and the school has been rated 'Good' in their latest Ofsted report! The TA will need to get involved with the pupils right from the start, and demonstrate an effective approach. Those who are interested will be welcome to spend a trial day at the school, upon undergoing a vetting process.
If this sounds like your perfect role, please send your application over immediate consideration.
