Are you a GRADUATE in Psychology with experience supporting special needs particularly autism, physical disabilities and/or sensory needs?
Gain invaluable experience and learn new skills working closely with children diagnosed with special needs and specialists in the field of special education and therapy.
If you based in Greenford, Sudbury Hill or local to these areas in Ealing send your updated CV today!
We have an exciting opportunity for psychology graduates WITH special needs experience starting in September 2020 in a Special Needs Primary School in Ealing with video interviews being conducted from July 1st 2020 due to school closures.
As a Graduate Special Needs Teaching Assistant, you will be working in the school’s department for children with sensory and severe learning difficulties in a small class of up to 6 pupils. You will deliver pre-planned learning and development activities with children while recording progress and managing behaviour.
With the school’s new class set to open in September 2020 the school are looking for pro-active graduate special needs teaching assistants who are confident in their skills to engage children with SEN.
Due to the needs of the children some may be non-verbal with speech difficulties, have sensory sensitivity, have mobility difficulties, have difficulties following or understanding instructions. Due to this, psychology graduates with experience with personal care (toileting/nappy changing) or moving and handling (manual handling) will be ideal.
Having experience or placement knowledge in special settings such as SEN schools, mainstream schools, nurseries, play centres, hospitals, care homes is highly beneficial but not essential. This is as some pupils will use resources used in these settings daily such as Makaton and PECS (picture flashcards).
The psychology graduate role is full-time Monday to Friday 8:30 – 4:00pm during school term time and requires consistency due to the needs of the children.
Benefits of working with Teaching Personnel at this school:
- Genuine career progression opportunities with former graduate SEN teaching assistants becoming direct team members, therapy assistants, teachers and support workers
- After 12 working weeks of commitment and continuous work all staff are paid to match that of a permanent staff member with daily pay increasing to GBP102 per day
- Weekly pay of GBP325 - GBP375 each Friday
- Free access and subsidised courses in Mental Health, Mindfulness, Autism Awareness and Behaviour through our CPD academy
- A dedicated personal consultant who will support with preparation, compliance and on-going guidance once in your new role
- We work closely with a large selection of local Special Need (SEN) schools and have established relationships with Senior Leadership Teams and Trusts
Requirements:
- Must be a psychology graduate with a degree qualification or a current final year student graduating this year
- Must have experience supporting special needs whether children or adults
- Must be available to start full-time in September 2020
- Must be open to supporting children with personal care or moving and handling where required
- Must have a positive attitude, pro-activity and be able to learn new skills quickly
- Having experience on placement in schools, hospitals, mental health or care with Special Needs (SEN) is highly beneficial
- Being open to continued development
The school is based local to Sudbury Hill and Greenford Station and is easily accessible on tube and train links across Ealing.
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.
