Bury St Edmunds
Are you a compassionate and resilient individual with a heart for supporting students with additional needs?
Do you want to work in a setting where your efforts directly contribute to a child's independence and confidence?
Are you looking for a rewarding role in a Bury St Edmunds school that values inclusive education and staff wellbeing?
We are seeking a dedicated SEN Teaching Assistant to join a wonderful SEN School in Bury St Edmunds. This role is perfect for someone who understands that "one size doesn't fit all" in education. You will be supporting students with a range of needs, which may include Autism (ASD), ADHD, or Moderate Learning Difficulties (MLD), helping them to navigate the curriculum and the school day successfully.
Your Strategic Impact: Responsibilities
- Individualised Support: Provide 1:1 assistance to students, breaking down tasks into manageable steps to help them achieve their personal and academic goals.
- Emotional Regulation: Use positive reinforcement and de-escalation techniques to help students manage their emotions in a classroom environment.
- Communication Support: Help students express themselves through various methods, potentially including visual aids or simplified language.
- Inclusive Classroom Aid: Assist the class teacher in adapting resources and activities to ensure they are accessible to students with different learning profiles.
- Social Development: Facilitate social interactions between students, helping them build meaningful friendships and teamwork skills.
- Progress Tracking: Monitor student engagement and wellbeing, providing regular updates to the SENCO and parents regarding milestones and challenges.
What You'll Bring to the Team
- Experience or Transferable Skills: Experience in SEN is highly valued, but we also welcome applicants with a background in healthcare, care work, or psychology who have a passion for child development.
- Patience & Calmness: The ability to remain composed and supportive, providing a steady presence for students who may find school overwhelming.
- Adaptability: A flexible approach to your workday-no two days are the same in an SEN setting!
- Strong Communication: The ability to build professional rapport with students, staff, and external specialists.
- Compliance: An enhanced Child DBS on the Update Service (or a willingness to process a new one via Randstad).
Why Partner with Randstad?
