Im delighted to be supporting a well-regarded, inclusive special school in South London that provides education for children with complex needs and severe learning difficulties.
As someone with over ten years experience recruiting for Londons SEND schools, Ive had the privilege of seeing what truly exceptional SEND provision looks like.
This school is one of those settings: warm, creative, and deeply child-centred, with a team that puts communication, curiosity, and connection at the heart of everything they do.
This is an ideal opportunity for someone who genuinely wants to make a difference a SEN Teaching Assistant who brings empathy, patience, and positivity to every interaction.
Youll be joining a collaborative and highly skilled staff team, supporting children aged 211 with a range of needs including profound and multiple learning difficulties (PMLD), autism, and sensory processing differences.
No two days are ever the same you might be supporting children through sensory play, helping to develop communication using PECS or Makaton, or working alongside therapists to implement personalised learning plans. The schools approach is nurturing, structured, and joyful; staff are encouraged to be creative and responsive in how they engage pupils.
