Would you like to build your experience working with Complex Learning Disabilities?

A Primary school located in Bath has recently opened a resource unit for children with SEN and is looking for a Psychology/Criminology (or similar degree) Graduate to work as a SEN Teaching Assistant to support children with complex needs, Autism, and Learning Disabilities. Candidates with relevant SEN experience will also be considered! The SEN children are aged 3 to 11 and require consistent, ongoing support to ensure they have the highest quality of care and child-centred support. Experience in a similar role would be desirable but not essential. Graduates in a similar field will also be considered. You will be working in a small class of 12 SEN children, alongside therapists, psychologists, teachers, and other support staff.

This is a FANTASTIC opportunity to work alongside the therapists and psychologists based on-site at the school. You will be mentored and have the opportunity to shadow sessions and learn from them. Plus, you will gain invaluable experience working with Special Needs and Mental Health issues. This is a great opportunity for an aspiring educational or occupational psychologist, therapeutic support worker, or SEN teacher.

The Primary School is looking for a SEN Teaching Assistant who can bring enthusiasm, passion, and experience to the classroom. They are looking for a SEN TA who will be proactive and adaptable and be able to use their own initiative. This is a fantastic opportunity for any aspiring teachers, educational/occupational/clinical psychologists, or therapists.
