SEN TA

Description:

SEN Teaching Assistant - Clacton

Full-Time | Monday to Friday | Long-Term Opportunity

Are you the person who can make a child think, "I can do this"?

Tradewind Recruitment are looking for a brilliant SEN Teaching Assistant to join a supportive school in Clacton, helping pupils overcome barriers, build confidence and enjoy coming to school.

This is a role where the little things really do matter.

A calm voice when a pupil is finding things difficult.
A bit of encouragement when they don't believe they can do something.
The patience to try a different approach.
And the ability to celebrate the small wins that others might miss.

If that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.

What will you be doing?

You'll become an important part of the school team, supporting pupils with additional needs both academically and pastorally.

Your day could involve:

Supporting pupils 1:1 and in small groups

Helping children access lessons and take part in school life

Developing positive relationships built on trust, patience and consistency

Supporting communication, confidence and independence

Helping pupils manage emotions and overcome barriers to learning

Working alongside teachers and the wider SEN team

Celebrating progress - whether that's a major breakthrough or a small step forward

What we're looking for

We're looking for someone who is kind, resilient, patient and genuinely passionate about helping children succeed.

You might already be an experienced SEN TA, LSA or Learning Support Assistant, or perhaps you have gained valuable experience working with children or young people in another setting.

Most importantly, you'll need to be someone who:

Understands that every child is different

Can remain calm and positive when things don't go to plan

Builds strong, trusting relationships

Is happy to adapt their approach to meet individual needs

Wants to make a real difference every day
