Summary
Are you calm under pressure, kind at heart, and passionate about helping young people thrive? Sense Education is hiring for a specialist SEN school in Kendal, looking for a dedicated SEN Teaching Assistant to join its experienced, nurturing team. This is a long-term temporary role with the potential to become permanent. Competitive pay is guaranteed.

The Role
This hands-on classroom-based position is ideal for someone who values structure, empathy, and tailored support. Working 1:1 or in small groups, you’ll help pupils with Autism, communication needs, and complex learning differences engage with learning, regulate their emotions, and develop essential life skills in a calm, therapeutic setting.

Your responsibilities will include:

Providing individual and small group support across a range of learning needs.
Using visual supports, sensory tools, and alternative communication strategies.
Adapting learning tasks to match each student’s EHCP and preferred learning style.
Supporting emotional regulation through consistent, positive behaviour strategies.
Assisting with personal care where required (training provided).
Working collaboratively with teachers, therapists, and other staff to create a supportive, inclusive environment.

Minimum qualifications required: A recognised Teaching Assistant qualification or a background in education or care (NVQ, CACHE, Degree, or equivalent)
Emotionally resilient, patient, and calm in challenging situations.
A strong team player with excellent communication skills.
Adaptable to different learning styles and behavioural needs.
Willing to support with personal care and follow individualised plans.
Motivated by the opportunity to make a daily difference.

Experience in any of the following is valued but not essential:

Autism, ADHD, and non-verbal communication needs.
PECS, Makaton, or sensory processing support.
Youth work, care work, or experience supporting individuals with SEND.

The School
This well-established specialist school in Kendal supports pupils aged 4–19 with Autism and associated learning needs. With small class sizes, a collaborative team approach, and a focus on wellbeing and steady progress, it’s an environment where both staff and students can flourish.
