South Wales SEN Branch

The South Wales SEN Branch of Teaching Personnel provides teachers, specialist teaching assistants and support staff to all specialist schools and provisions in Cardiff, Vale of Glamorgan, Bridgend, RCT, Merthyr, Blaenau Gwent, Caerphilly, Newport, Monmouthshire and Torfaen.  

Our Specialist SEN Education Consultants are experts in their field and all have experience of working as teaching assistants within SEN environments themselves. This means they have expert knowledge and experience and are easily able to recognise the demands placed on staff working in these environments making them able to recruit the right candidates who can deal with these demands. They specialise in long term and permanent roles to provide our registered staff with work to suit their needs and lifestyle.

Teaching Personnel appreciate the exceptional work that our teachers, teaching assistants and specialist support staff do every day! Whether you are seeking day-to-day supply, require a long-term or permanent position our consultants will be delighted to assist you.

Teaching Personnel are the first-choice agency for a large number of SEN schools and provisions due to the excellent calibre of our candidates and a respectful working relationship where we truly understand the needs of the schools we work with. 

TP pride ourselves on ensuring our candidates are properly trained and are in touch with all the necessary training demands that are important to their roles. The team run regular training sessions for applicable courses throughout the academic year and run other courses that are important and relevant when working within SEN environments. We always ensure our candidates have the appropriate knowledge and training to develop professionally in the environments they are working in.

An extract from a recent testimonial for the South Wales SEN Branch, from a Secure Children's Home said:

"Over the last 5 years we have worked closely with Teaching Personnel to build an additional pool of Teaching Assistants who are able to offer one to one support to some of the young people who have been identified as requiring extra help in the classroom environment."

"We have built up a close working relationship with Teaching Personnel who understand the special qualities and skills necessary to work in such a stressful and emotionally challenging environment... thereby enhancing the learning experience of the young person and providing a rewarding experience for the staff member."

We are always looking to register more qualified teachers, teaching assistants and specialist support staff for the variety of jobs we have available.  If you’re not already registered, please register or contact us if you would like more information.
