You’re not “just” support staff. You’re the calm in the busy moments. The steady voice. The one who spots what a child needs before anyone else does.
We’re working with an Outstanding primary school in Birmingham looking for a qualified SEN HLTA to support pupils across Reception to Year 2. This is a full‑time, long‑term role starting ASAP, with the potential to become permanent for the right person.
This school takes inclusion seriously. Early intervention matters here. The EYFS and KS1 teams work closely together, behaviour is well supported, and SLT are hands‑on and approachable. You won’t be left to figure things out alone.
Your role will include:
* Delivering targeted interventions across Reception, Year 1 and Year 2
* Supporting pupils with additional needs, including ASD, ADHD and speech and language needs
* Covering lessons when required
* Working closely with the SENCO and class teachers to create structured, nurturing learning spaces

What the school is looking for:
* A recognised HLTA qualification, this is essential
* Strong SEN experience within a primary setting
* Confidence covering classes when needed
* A calm, proactive and patient approach
* Someone who genuinely believes every child can thrive
