About the Role

Do you have the energy, compassion and creativity to help children and young people overcome barriers and achieve more than they ever thought possible? At Wessex Lodge School, we're looking for enthusiastic and dedicated Teaching Assistants to join our specialist team and make a genuine difference to the lives of pupils with additional needs.

As a Teaching Assistant, you'll play a vital role in supporting pupils across the school, helping them to engage in learning, develop socially and emotionally, and achieve their individual goals. Working closely with teachers and the wider multidisciplinary team, you'll help create a safe, stimulating and inclusive environment where pupils feel understood, valued and inspired to succeed.

You'll support learning both inside and outside the classroom, encouraging independence, promoting positive behaviour and adapting your approach to meet the diverse needs of our pupils.

At the heart of this role is the opportunity to build meaningful relationships and help children realise their potential—academically, socially and emotionally.

What You'll Be Doing

Support pupils aged 5–18 to engage positively in learning and achieve their individual targets.
Deliver tailored 1:1 and small-group support to meet a range of SEND needs.
Promote pupils' personal development, wellbeing, confidence and independence.
Monitor progress, provide feedback and contribute to assessment and record-keeping.
Help create stimulating learning environments that encourage curiosity and participation.
Build positive relationships with pupils, families, colleagues and external professionals.
Promote positive behaviour and uphold safeguarding procedures at all times.
Contribute to the wider life of the school, supporting enrichment activities, pastoral care and school events.

About You

We're looking for someone who is:

Creative, enthusiastic and willing to think outside the box.
Passionate about helping children and young people succeed.
Experienced in supporting pupils with SEND, including Autism and SEMH needs, or eager to develop within specialist education.
Calm, patient and able to respond sensitively to individual needs.
An excellent communicator with strong interpersonal skills.
Organised, reliable and confident maintaining accurate records.
Committed to safeguarding and promoting the wellbeing of children and young people.
Able to work both independently and collaboratively as part of a multidisciplinary team.
Dedicated to continuous professional development and learning.
Full UK Driving Licence

Desirable Experience & Qualifications

Experience working with children and young people with SEND.
Experience liaising with parents, carers and external agencies.
Knowledge of SEND processes and interventions.
Experience using assessment information to support planning.
PE, Outdoor Education or Forest School qualifications.
QTS or previous teaching experience.
