Teaching Assistants - Northamptonshire (Primary SEND)
Full-time & part-time opportunities | Immediate & ongoing roles
If you're someone who thrives on making a genuine difference, enjoys being hands-on, and wants to be part of a supportive school environment - this could be exactly what you're looking for.
Aspire People are working with a well-established, busy SEND school in Northampton, looking to welcome passionate Teaching Assistants into their primary phase. This is a fantastic opportunity to support pupils with additional needs in a setting that values energy, patience, and a proactive approach.
Whether you've got experience in Early Years, Primary, or SEN - or you're looking to build your career in this space - we want to hear from you.
What you'll be doing:
You'll be supporting pupils on a 1:1 or small group basis, helping them access learning, build confidence, and develop key life skills. No two days are the same, and being adaptable and enthusiastic is key.
What we're looking for:
A positive, "can-do" attitude and willingness to get stuck in
Strong interpersonal skills - someone who can build rapport quickly with pupils and staff
A genuine interest in supporting children with special educational needs
Experience or knowledge of autism in a classroom setting (desirable, not essential)
Basic English and Maths (Level 2 or equivalent experience)
A team player who's reliable and committed
Who this role suits:
Experienced Teaching Assistants looking for a rewarding SEND role
Graduates (especially Psychology or Education-related) wanting hands-on experience
Individuals exploring a future in teaching or education
Anyone passionate about supporting children and willing to learn on the job
Previous experience is helpful, but not essential - what really matters is your attitude, commitment, and willingness to grow.
