Job Description

An inclusive and welcoming primary school located in Richmond, South West London, is currently looking for a SEND Teaching Assistant to join their support staff team with an immediate start.

As a SEND TA, you could be working with any of the primary key stages (EYFS, KS1 or KS2) and on a day-to-day basis some of your duties will include:   

• Supporting and working 1:1 with key children to reach the targets on their EHCPs, closely monitoring their progress and providing feedback to teaching staff and senior leaders
• Liaising with class teachers and the SENDCo to plan strategies and interventions for key children based on their progress
• Delivering learning interventions, both on a 1:1 basis and to small groups
• Providing pupils with a range of learning strategies 
• Supporting non-verbal children with suitable Speech and Language activities 
• Encouraging development of vocabulary through speech, reading and writing  
• Supporting children with SEND in an inclusive and positive environment  

This is a full time role, and you will be working Monday to Friday 8:30am-3:45pm as a SEND Teaching Assistant. It's a very rewarding role as it is long-term to last until the end of the academic year in July 2025, meaning you will be able to see the progress and development your key children make across the year as a result of your support, help and guidance. There is also the potential for a permanent position in the future.

Joining a dedicated and friendly team of support staff, you will be working with likeminded people who work collaboratively to ensure every child in the school is able to become a confident learner and achieve their full potential - personally, socially, emotionally and academically.
