Full job description

Raise Education & Wellbeing School is seeking a skilled and compassionate Experienced Teaching Assistant to join our dedicated team supporting pupils with complex Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs and/or autism. This is a rewarding opportunity for a person who is confident working in a therapeutic, trauma-informed environment and committed to helping young people feel safe, understood, and ready to engage in learning.

In this role, you will play a key part in building secure, trusting relationships with pupils, supporting emotional regulation, and enabling meaningful access to the curriculum. You will work both within the classroom and through targeted 1:1 support, responding flexibly to the individual needs of learners. As an experienced member of the team, you will also model effective practice, contribute to a calm and consistent learning environment, and support the development of less experienced colleagues.

We are looking for someone who is emotionally resilient, reflective, and able to remain calm under pressure, with a genuine passion for supporting young people to succeed both socially and academically.

Please note : if appointed induction will go ahead the last week in August for a September Start.

Key Responsibilities

1. Support for Pupils

· Build consistent, trusting relationships with high-needs learners.

· Deliver proactive and responsive regulation support during dysregulation or crisis.

· Implement EHCP targets, Behaviour Support Plans (BSPs), and individualised strategies.

· Facilitate access to learning by adapting tasks and communication methods.

· Provide mentoring, modelling, and social development support for pupils.

2. Learning and Curriculum Support

· Support the delivery of differentiated curriculum content in collaboration with teachers.

· Use assistive technology, visual supports, and sensory tools to aid access and engagement.

· Deliver targeted interventions (e.g. Zones of Regulation, SCERTS-based strategies).

· Monitor and report on pupil progress, engagement, and well-being.

3. Environment and Behaviour Support

· Create and maintain calm, predictable, and safe learning environments.

· Contribute to individual risk assessments and positive handling plans.

· Supervise pupils during transitions, break/lunchtimes, and off-site activities.

· Use restorative and relational practice consistently in line with the school ethos.

4. Professional Collaboration and Development

· Work closely with therapists, SENCO, teachers and behaviour teams.

· Attend team debriefs, supervision, and reflective practice sessions.

· Provide informal mentoring to newer or intermediate-level TAs.

· Participate in CPD linked to SEMH, autism, and therapeutic approaches.
