BANK TA

Flexible Bank Work | Immediate & Ongoing Shifts

As a BANK TA, you’ll be stepping into different SEN settings as needed, sometimes short notice, sometimes pre-booked. You might be supporting a pupil 1:1, helping in a small group, or working alongside class staff. No two days are the same, and that’s exactly why many of our BANK TAs love the role.

The schools you’ll work in support children and young people with autism, learning difficulties, communication needs, sensory differences and behaviours linked to complex needs. A good BANK TA brings patience, curiosity and a calm presence into the classroom. Having access to a car is a big plus, as you’ll be travelling between schools.
