Every child learns differently. We're looking for people who understand that.
Parker Smith Inclusion is recruiting Learning Support Assistants and Teaching Assistants for a range of schools across Southend and the surrounding areas.
We work with mainstream primary and secondary schools, as well as specialist SEND settings supporting children and young people with additional needs.
You could be helping a young child settle into the classroom, supporting a pupil with autism or ADHD on a 1:1 basis, or working alongside teachers in a specialist setting supporting pupils with more complex needs.
No two roles are exactly the same, but all offer the opportunity to make a positive difference to a child's school experience.
What could you be doing?
-
Supporting pupils with classroom learning and activities.
-
Providing 1:1 and small-group assistance.
-
Helping children develop communication and social skills.
-
Supporting emotional regulation and positive behaviour.
-
Encouraging independence and confidence.
-
Adapting activities to meet individual needs.
-
Working alongside teachers and other support staff.
What are we looking for?
We're keen to hear from people with experience in:
-
SEND and specialist education.
-
Mainstream school settings.
-
Nursery and childcare.
-
Care and support work.
-
Youth work and mentoring.
Experience working with children with autism, ADHD, SEMH or other additional needs would be beneficial.
Most importantly, you'll need to be patient, understanding and flexible, with the ability to build positive relationships and adapt to different situations.
