Sen Teaching Assistant

Description

SEND Learning Support Assistant – ARP (ASAP Start)

Some children communicate through movement, routine, and trusted relationships rather than spoken language. This permanent role exists to give them the consistency and calm adult presence they rely on every day.

We are working on behalf of a mainstream primary school in Coventry with an Alternative Resource Provision supporting pupils with communication and language needs. The ARP sits within an inclusive school community and offers a learning environment shaped around routine, sensory regulation, and child-led experiences rather than traditional classroom structures.

This is a permanent role with an ASAP start, suited to someone who wants to work closely with pupils every day, build trust over time, and be part of a stable SEND team.

Support pupils within the ARP throughout the school day
