Graduate SEN LSA

Full Time | Monday–Friday | £95+ per day PAYE | September 2026

Looking to turn your degree into a career where you can make a real difference?

Parker Smith Inclusion is looking for Graduate SEN LSAs to join supportive primary schools from September.

This is a great opportunity if you’re a recent graduate considering a career in teaching, educational psychology, speech and language therapy, counselling, social work or another SEND-related career and want to gain genuine hands-on experience before taking your next step.

About the Role

As a Graduate SEN LSA, you’ll work alongside teachers and the wider school team to support pupils with a range of SEND needs.

Your role could include:

• Providing 1:1 and small-group support

• Supporting children with ASC, ADHD, speech and language needs and other additional needs

• Helping pupils develop confidence, independence and communication

• Supporting social, emotional and behavioural development

• Delivering interventions and personalised support

• Building positive relationships with pupils and helping them feel confident in school

No two days will be the same, and you’ll gain valuable experience of what it’s really like to work with children with SEND.

About You

You don’t need previous school experience. We’re looking for graduates with the right attitude, personality and genuine interest in SEND.

Your degree could be in Psychology, Education, Childhood Studies, Sociology, Criminology, Sports Science or something completely different.

You’ll need to be:

• Patient, caring and empathetic

• Confident communicating with children

• Resilient and adaptable

• A good team player

• Passionate about helping children develop

• Interested in building a career working with children or young people
