Summary
Are you a university student or recent graduate curious about a future in education, SEND, or therapeutic work?

This Graduate Teaching Assistant role offers a rewarding opportunity to gain meaningful experience in a nurturing specialist setting—perfect for anyone looking to develop their skills while supporting young people with additional needs.

Supporting pupils 1:1 and in small groups
Using visual supports and sensory strategies
Encouraging communication, engagement, and emotional regulation

People with experience in support work, care, or volunteering with children or young people
Anyone empathetic, patient, and curious about SEND, who wants to build experience in a school setting

The School
The school is a supportive, inclusive environment where children with autism and sensory needs are encouraged to thrive. Staff work collaboratively to create structured routines, creative learning opportunities, and a calm, respectful atmosphere. Pupils have access to sensory spaces and frequent hands-on experiences—from local trips to therapeutic activities.
