Join Us as a SEN Teaching Assistant - Make Every Day Count
Are you passionate about making a real difference in children’s lives? We’re looking for a dedicated SEN Teaching Assistant to support pupils with Autism, SEMH needs and learning difficulties, working alongside a supportive classroom teacher.
