Learning Support Assistant – A Role Where You Can Thrive
Location: Barking
Salary: £85 - £90 per day
Hours: Full-time, temp to perm
Some roles just feel right - where the team is supportive, the leadership listens, and every day brings the chance to make a real impact. This inclusive, nurturing primary school in Barking is one of those places.
Staff stay here because they feel valued, supported, and able to do the job they are trained to do. The school’s Additional Resource Provision (ARP) for children with Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH) needs is structured, well-resourced, and led by a team that understands how to help every child find their place and thrive.
How the School Will Support You:
✔ You won’t be left figuring things out alone – A highly experienced SEN team and leadership that provides mentorship, training, and daily support.
✔ A school that genuinely values SEN expertise – Leadership recognises the importance of specialist support and ensures staff have the right tools, CPD opportunities, and encouragement to develop.
✔ A culture of well-being – Low staff turnover, a nurturing environment, and a team that supports each other make this a workplace where you’ll want to stay.
Moving to a new school after years in one place can feel like a big step, but in the right setting, it can also be the start of something incredibly rewarding. Your experience will make a real impact every day - whether it’s helping a child self-regulate, gain confidence, or engage with learning in new ways, your patience and dedication will leave a lasting mark.
