Description:
Axcis Education is working with a specialist Alternative Provision in Brislington, Bristol to recruit resilient and passionate Teaching Assistants for September starts. The provision supports Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4 pupils who have been excluded from mainstream education due to behavioural difficulties and SEMH needs, offering a structured yet supportive pathway back into learning.
This role is ideal for candidates with a youth work, mentoring or behaviour support background, who are looking to make a genuine and lasting impact on young people’s lives.
