About the Role:
As a SEN Teaching Assistant at our vibrant primary school in Rowley Regis, you will have the unique opportunity to work closely with twins who require extra support due to their additional needs.

• Foster a safe and inclusive learning environment where every child feels supported and valued.
• Utilize creative approaches to engage the twins in activities that promote communication, social skills, and emotional regulation.
• Maintain accurate records of progress and any significant incidents, communicating effectively with relevant stakeholders.

Requirements:

• Experience working with children with additional needs, particularly those who are non-verbal and may exhibit challenging behaviors.
• Resilience and the ability to remain calm and composed in demanding situations.
• Excellent teamwork and communication skills, with a collaborative approach to problem-solving.
• Relevant qualifications or training in SEN support are desirable but not essential.

Why Join Us?:

• A supportive and inclusive school community committed to the success and well-being of every child.
• Ongoing professional development opportunities to enhance your skills and knowledge.
• The chance to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children and families.
