A fantastic opportunity has arisen for a compassionate and enthusiastic SEND Teaching Assistant to join a specialist school in Newbury. The school supports children and young people with a range of additional needs, including pupils with autism, and is looking for someone who is committed to helping every child reach their potential. Working as part of a dedicated school team, you will provide tailored one-to-one support both inside and outside the classroom. Your role will involve helping pupils access their learning, supporting their emotional and social development and encouraging independence and confidence. There may also be occasions where you are required to provide personal care, so a willingness to support pupils with all aspects of their school day is essential. This role would suit someone who is naturally patient, calm and nurturing, with the ability to build trusting relationships with children who may require additional support. Experience within a SEND setting, particularly with autism or complex needs, would be advantageous, although candidates with a strong passion for working with children and a willingness to learn are encouraged to apply. The position is full-time, Monday to Friday, from 8:30am until 3:30pm, with a daily rate of £92.63. The school is based in Newbury and is accessible by public transport, although driving may be beneficial depending on where you are travelling from. If you are looking for a rewarding position where no two days are the same and where your support can have a meaningful impact on a child’s education, wellbeing and development, this could be the perfect opportunity for you.<br/><br />If you are interested, then please click on the apply button and contact Sam Higham on 0207 580 2956 | Ext: 1038.<br /><br />If you are not interested in this role but know someone else who might be, <strong>don&#39;t forget that we offer &pound;50 in shopping vouchers if you refer a friend to us and we place them in the job.</strong> For more details, contact your local Axcis office.<br /><br /><em>This is a temporary position, unless stated otherwise.</em><br /><br /><em>Axcis is an equal opportunities employer and as such we do not discriminate based on age, gender, disability, race or any other equal opportunities criteria.<br /><br />The company is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
