Principal Resourcing is currently partnering with a number of secondary schools and academies who are seeking Secondary Teaching Assistants to support students with Special Educational Needs (SEN). Opportunities are available for both flexible, day-to-day cover and longer-term roles, reflecting the growing demand for Teaching Assistants who can provide tailored support to learners with a wide range of needs.
We welcome applications from qualified and experienced Secondary Teaching Assistants, as well as individuals with transferable skills and relevant experience who are eager to transition into education.
Through Principal Resourcing’s pioneering and established Get into the Classroom programme, those with transferable skills are offered a clear pathway to begin a rewarding new career in education.
We are particularly interested in candidates who:
- Have experience working with SEN in any capacity.
- Have supported children in settings such as residential care, youth work, sports coaching, or similar roles.
Hundreds of candidates have already joined the Principal Resourcing team, completed our comprehensive training, and are now thriving in classroom-based roles.
With so many exciting opportunities available, there has never been a better time to start your journey as a Teaching Assistant.
