Job description

Teaching Assistant – Specialist Resource Base (SRB)

Location: NP16
Start Date: September 2026
Pay: £92.63 per day

Teaching Personnel is recruiting a proactive and compassionate Teaching Assistant to join a Specialist Resource Base (SRB) within a Primary school in the NP16 area from September.

This rewarding role involves supporting pupils with a range of Additional Learning Needs (ALN/SEN), including Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Severe Learning Difficulties (SLD), Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties (PMLD) and sensory needs. You'll work within a highly supportive team, helping pupils access learning, develop independence and thrive in a structured, nurturing environment.

About the Role

  • Provide 1:1 and small group support within the SRB.
  • Adapt learning activities and communication to meet individual pupil needs.
  • Support pupils with emotional regulation, engagement and independence.
  • Work alongside teachers, the ALNCo and specialist professionals.
  • Implement personalised learning plans and sensory strategies.
  • Assist with personal care where required.

The Ideal Candidate

We're looking for someone who is:

  • Patient, caring and passionate about supporting children with ALN/SEN.
  • Proactive and able to use their own initiative.
  • Calm, resilient and confident supporting pupils with complex needs.
  • A strong communicator who builds positive relationships.
  • Flexible, reliable and committed to working full-time.
  • Willing to learn specialist approaches used within SRB settings.

Previous experience in education, care, youth work or supporting individuals with additional needs is desirable, but not essential. A positive attitude and willingness to learn are equally important.

What Teaching Personnel Offers

  • Competitive daily pay from £92.63
  • Free safeguarding, ALN/SEN and behaviour management CPD
  • Dedicated support from the Newport Primary team
  • Long-term and permanent opportunities
  • A rewarding role where you can make a genuine difference every day
