Are you passionate about helping children reach their full potential? We're looking for a dedicated and enthusiastic SEN Teaching Assistant (TA) to join a warm and welcoming primary school in Harlow. This is a fantastic opportunity to make a genuine impact by providing one-to-one support to a pupil with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) within a mainstream classroom setting.
About the School
Set in a vibrant and inclusive community, the school is committed to providing an outstanding learning experience for all pupils. With a focus on challenge, enrichment, and empowerment, the team works to ensure every child builds the confidence and skills they need to succeed—both in and beyond the classroom. The school fosters a supportive, forward-thinking environment where diversity is celebrated, and every learner is encouraged to thrive.
Key Responsibilities
* Supporting a student with ASD on a 1:1 basis to help them access the curriculum effectively.
* Collaborating with teaching staff to develop and implement personalised learning plans.
* Delivering targeted interventions and encouraging progress through positive reinforcement.
* Supporting the creation of a calm, inclusive, and respectful classroom atmosphere.
* Monitoring and documenting student progress, and sharing updates with teachers, parents, and external professionals.
* Working closely with multi-agency teams to ensure holistic support is provided for the pupil and their family.
What We're Looking For
* Experience working in an SEN or classroom support role (particularly with ASD).
* A genuine passion for helping students with additional needs achieve their best.
* Excellent communication and teamwork skills.
* A proactive and compassionate approach to learning support.
* Relevant qualifications in education or SEN support (desirable, but not essential).
