SEN Teaching Assistant

1:1 Learning Support Assistant Opportunities – September 2020

Teaching Personnel is currently supporting the September recruitment plan of several SEN schools, alternative provisions and mainstream schools that incorporate a designated specialist provision for children with SEN including:

• Three PRUs for children who have been excluded from mainstream education, or are on a managed move (Lambeth, Lewisham and Greenwich)

If you are looking for a position in education, supporting children with special educational needs, I would like to hear from you. The opportunities that we can offer range from day to day cover, to part time and full time regular positions. Whatever you are looking for, we will help you to find.

Ideally you will have some or all of the following training/skills:
