We are seeking an enthusiastic and dedicated Teaching Assistant to join our vivacious and hard-working staff.

We can offer additional training through our CPD Academy and will be running a Team Teach Course during the February half term holiday. You will need to take into account children's learning styles and what motivates them to stay engaged, using positive behaviour management.

Our ideal SEN Teaching Assistant will;

• experience supporting children on the Autistic Spectrum
