Job Description:
Learning Support Assistant
Secondary schools across East Sussex are looking for Learning Support Assistants to join their teams on either a full or part-time basis. They seek individuals who are empathetic, driven, and passionate about working with young people.
At Protocol, we have an exciting opportunity with a big academy trust that includes 5 schools in the East Sussex area. We need SEN TAs, teachers, and support staff — everything!
The role involves working on a 1:1 or small group basis with children aged 11-16 to support their engagement with learning. You may support children with Special Educational Needs/Disabilities (SEND) or Social Emotional Mental Health needs (SEMH).
Experience in an educational setting is beneficial but not essential. Successful candidates have backgrounds in youth work, care/hospital settings, arts/creative fields, psychology/sociology graduates, among others. No formal teaching or support qualifications are required, but comfort in supporting students' learning is essential.
Hours: Monday to Friday (part-time options available)
The successful applicant will:
* Have strong communication skills
* Handle situations calmly and sensitively
* Work collaboratively with staff and families
* Care about pupils' academic, emotional, and personal development
* Use initiative to meet individual student needs
* Be driven and determined
* Be adaptable, proactive, and positive
What Protocol Education offers:
* Competitive rates based on experience and responsibilities
* Guaranteed work agreements for consistent income
* CPD during half-term or summer
* CV writing assistance and marketing tools
* Support from an experienced team with over 31 years in education recruitment

* Social events and awards celebrating outstanding performance
If interested, apply through this advert or via the Protocol Education website. All applicants need appropriate qualifications and training. Please consult the FAQs on the website for details.
Pay rates include holiday pay. This is a temporary role with potential for permanency later. Protocol Education is committed to safeguarding children and will conduct necessary checks, including DBS verification. We offer free safeguarding training. All candidates must have a valid DBS check and subscribe to the DBS Update Service.
