Sen Teaching Assistant

Description

KS1 Teaching Assistant. Permanent Role.

If you're looking for a role where you can see the difference you make every single day, this could be the right next step.

We're seeking a Teaching Assistant to support a mixed Year 1 and Year 2 class in a mainstream infant school. This is a full-time, temporary to permanent opportunity starting 9th March 2026. You'll be in the same classroom each day, building relationships and becoming a familiar, steady presence.

This class thrives on routine. Clear expectations, calm transitions, and consistent adult support make a real difference. Your role will be to help maintain that structure, support learning in small groups, and provide reassurance for pupils who need a little extra guidance to stay focused and confident.
