Vision for Education are currently recruiting for a dedicated SEN Teaching Assistant to work within a 2-form entry primary school based in Childwall.

This Ofsted-rated ‘Outstanding’ school is seeking a compassionate, adaptable, and experienced individual to provide one-to-one support for a child in Year 2. The role requires someone skilled in supporting pupils with additional needs, including autism and ADHD, and who demonstrates a strong commitment to fostering positive behaviour, emotional well-being and safeguarding.

The successful candidate will have previous experience supporting children with additional needs such as autism and ADHD, as well as a calm, empathetic and patient approach to managing emotional and behavioural challenges. An understanding of child-centred approaches such as PACE and trauma-informed care would be highly beneficial. Strong communication and interpersonal skills are essential for working with the child, their family and the wider school team.

To be considered for this role, you must have experience working with children or young people, be proactive and personable with a positive attitude, and either hold a DBS on the Update Service or be willing to obtain one.

Experience working with children and young people with SEND is highly desirable, alongside a calm and resilient approach. Specialist training or experience in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and ADHD would be advantageous, as well as Mental Health First Aid Certification or knowledge of sensory integration strategies such as Sensory Circuits.

As a valued member of the Vision for Education team, you will receive excellent weekly pay through our in-house PAYE payroll, full compliance with Agency Workers’ Regulations (AWR), access to professional development opportunities, and a generous refer-a-friend scheme.

Vision for Education is a market-leading education recruitment and supply agency committed to supporting the learning and development of young people. With branches across the country, we are an employer of choice for high-quality primary, secondary and SEND staff.

If you can inspire, support and motivate young learners in a rewarding role, we would love to hear from you.
