At Applebough Education, we know that a SEND Teaching Assistant isn’t “just” classroom support — you’re the steady presence, the creative problem-solver, and often the difference between a child struggling and a child succeeding.
We’re currently seeking passionate SEND TAs to work across a range of inclusive schools in Birmingham. Whether you’re experienced or just starting your SEND career, we’ll match you with the right environment to help you grow and make a real impact.
What You’ll Be Doing
*
Supporting children with a variety of needs, including autism, ADHD, speech and language difficulties, and social/emotional challenges.
*
Working 1:1 or in small groups to encourage confidence, engagement, and progress.
*
Adapting resources and strategies to meet pupils’ individual needs.
*
Building strong relationships with pupils, staff, and families.
*
Celebrating every achievement — no matter how big or small.
What We’re Looking For
*
Experience supporting children (in a school, childcare, or similar setting).
*
An understanding of SEND or the willingness to learn.
*
Patience, empathy, and resilience.
*
A positive, team-focused attitude.
*
Relevant qualifications (desirable, but not essential).
Why Choose Applebough Education?
*
Personal Approach – We take time to get to know you, your skills, and your career goals.
*
Career Development – Access to training opportunities to build your SEND expertise.
*
Variety of Settings – From primary to secondary, mainstream to specialist schools.
*
Ongoing Support – Regular check-ins, feedback, and someone at the end of the phone who really listens.
*
Flexible Roles – Day-to-day supply, long-term placements, or permanent opportunities.
At Applebough Education, we don’t just fill jobs — we build futures. If you’re ready to bring patience, creativity, and heart into the classroom, we’d love to hear from you.
