Hours: 37.5 hours per week | Monday to Friday | 8.30am – 4.30pm

About the Role

Are you ready to inspire, support, and empower young people to achieve their very best? As part of our continued growth, Oakham Shires School is seeking passionate and dedicated Teaching Assistants to join our warm and welcoming team.

Whether you already have experience in education or you’re looking for a new, meaningful career path, this is an opportunity to make a genuine difference while developing your skills in a supportive environment.

As a Teaching Assistant, you’ll be at the heart of each pupil’s learning journey. Working closely with teachers and our wider support team, you’ll help pupils with autism and complex needs to grow academically, socially, and emotionally. No two days are the same — from classroom learning to community-based activities and creative projects, your role will be varied, rewarding, and impactful.

You Will:

Support teaching staff in preparing lessons and delivering engaging, hands-on learning experiences
Work 1:1 and in small groups, supporting personalised learning plans
Encourage emotional regulation and positive behaviour through patience, understanding, and consistency
Supervise and support pupils during classroom, outdoor, and community-based activities
Build strong, trusting relationships so pupils feel safe, valued, and motivated
Help create a calm, inclusive, and nurturing learning environment where every child can thrive

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for caring, enthusiastic individuals who are passionate about helping children with autism and complex needs succeed. You’ll be supportive, compassionate, and proactive, with a flexible approach and a genuine commitment to inclusive education.

You’ll be confident working as part of a team, able to build positive, trusting relationships with pupils, and comfortable supporting emotional regulation and positive behaviour. Strong communication skills and a calm, patient manner are essential.

Essential requirements:

GCSE Maths and English (or equivalent) at Grade C/4 or above
Full UK Driving Licence (pupils regularly access community-based activities)

Desirable (but not essential):

Experience working with autistic pupils and/or those with challenging behaviour
Experience in a school or educational setting

If you’re new to this type of role but bring the right attitude, values, and motivation to make a difference, we’ll support you to grow and develop in the role.

About Us

Oakham Shires School is an independent SEN school, part of Options Autism, providing a nurturing environment for autistic children and young people with associated needs.

Why Join Us?

We place pupils and vulnerable young adults at the heart of everything we do, so every day brings the satisfaction of making a real difference. We are committed to the safeguarding and promoting the welfare of pupils and young people. All applicants will be subject to social media checks and successful applicants to a fully enhanced DBS.
