You’re the calm in the storm—and we need you.
We’re looking for a kind, steady, and experienced SEN Teaching Assistant to work 1:1 with a pupil in a supportive Doncaster primary school.
If you’ve worked with children with additional learning needs (especially Autism), know your way around an EHCP, and can step into a classroom with confidence and care—you’ll fit right in.
What your day might include:
1. One-to-one support that builds trust and confidence
2. Helping adapt lessons so they really land
3. Supporting the teacher with prep and classroom routines
4. Keeping track of progress (and the little wins)
5. Using strong de-escalation strategies if things get tricky
What we’re looking for:
6. A TA qualification (CACHE Level 2 or 3 preferred)
7. Experience working in SEN settings
8. Patience, good humour, and a bucketload of empathy
Why join Protocol?
9. Weekly pay through PAYE
10. FREE access to Thrive and our CPD Academy
11. A consultant who gets to know you
12. Long-term roles that value your skills
13. Referral bonuses (because good people know good people)
