HLTA - SEND

Camden, North London | £110–£130 per day PAYE | Full-time

If you are an experienced Teaching Assistant who is already leading groups, covering learning and taking on more responsibility, this could be the right next step.

Parker Smith Inclusion is recruiting an HLTA for a SEND-focused education setting in Camden.

You will work closely with teachers and support staff, taking a proactive role in delivering learning and helping pupils with additional needs make progress across the school day.

The role

Your responsibilities may include:

  • Leading individual and small-group learning

  • Delivering pre-planned lessons where required

  • Supporting pupils with SEND

  • Adapting activities around different learning levels

  • Supporting communication and engagement

  • Helping pupils regulate and return to learning

  • Working closely with teachers on pupil progress

  • Supporting less experienced Teaching Assistants

  • Taking greater responsibility within the classroom when required

Who are we looking for?

This role would particularly suit:

  • Experienced SEND Teaching Assistants

  • Existing HLTAs

  • Senior Teaching Assistants

  • Cover Supervisors with SEND experience

  • Aspiring Unqualified Teachers

Essential:

  • Strong previous classroom experience

  • Confidence leading groups

  • Good classroom and behaviour management

  • Ability to work independently

  • Strong SEND awareness

  • Full-time availability

Why consider this role?

There often comes a point where another standard Teaching Assistant role no longer feels like progression.

This opportunity gives you greater responsibility while allowing you to continue working directly with pupils.

It could also be a useful stepping stone if you are considering an Unqualified Teacher or teacher-training route in the future.

Pay: £110–£130 per day PAYE, depending on experience.
