Are You Looking for a Rewarding Career Within Schools?

Join a Leading SEN School in Hoddesdon as a Permanent Teaching Assistant!

Job Title: SEN Teaching Assistant
Location: Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire
Salary: £20,000 per annum
Contract Type: Permanent, Full-Time (Monday to Friday)
Start Date: Within 1–4 weeks (depending on candidate availability)
Eligibility: Must have full Right to Work in the UK — sponsorship is not available for this role.

The Opportunity

Are you someone who loves helping others and wants to make a real difference every day?
We’re working in partnership with a supportive and inclusive SEN school in Hoddesdon, who are seeking caring, proactive, and enthusiastic individuals to join their team as SEN Teaching Assistants.

This is an incredible opportunity to build a long-term career in education, supporting children and young people to achieve their goals and develop vital life skills. The school prides itself on creating a nurturing, positive, and hands-on learning environment where every child is supported to grow — both academically and personally.

The school caters for students aged 4–19 years with a range of additional needs, including Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC), moderate to severe learning difficulties (MLD/SLD), and social, emotional, and communication needs. Every day is different — challenging at times, but always rewarding.

No Experience? No Problem!

You don’t need prior experience — just a genuine passion for helping young people. The school provides a comprehensive induction and ongoing training, designed to fully support you from day one and set you up for success in your new role.

Key Responsibilities

*

Provide one-to-one and small group support to students with a range of learning needs.

*

Assist the class teacher in delivering creative, inclusive lessons.

*

Support students in developing communication, confidence, and social skills.

*

Encourage independence through patience, understanding, and care.

*

Create a safe, structured, and nurturing classroom environment.

*

Work collaboratively with teachers, therapists, and external professionals.

*

Celebrate student achievements — big or small — and contribute to a positive school culture.

About You

We’re looking for someone who is:

*

Compassionate, patient, and dedicated to supporting young people.

*

Reliable, proactive, and eager to learn new skills.

*

A great communicator who can build strong relationships with students and colleagues.

*

Able to stay calm under pressure and adapt to different situations.

*

A team player with a positive and resilient attitude.

*

Fully eligible to work in the UK (sponsorship is not available).

Experience within education or SEN is beneficial but not essential — your attitude, enthusiasm, and willingness to learn are what truly matters.

What’s in It for You

*

Full-time, Monday to Friday position (no part-time hours available).

*

Comprehensive training and career development opportunities.

*

Supportive, inclusive, and friendly school community.

*

Access to excellent facilities and specialist SEN resources.

*

The chance to make a genuine impact on young lives every single day.

If you’re ready to take the next step in your career and join a school where every day brings new rewards, we’d love to hear from you.
