Do you have experience working with challenging behaviour?

An excellent Specialist School in Chippenham are currently looking for a Behaviour Teaching Assistant to join them on a long-term basis until July 2024. This is an exciting opportunity for a Psychology or Criminology graduate, or experienced Teaching Assistant to develop experience with Special Educational Needs and Behaviour, and help support the student's mental well being.

The SEN School are looking for a confident, dedicated Behaviour Teaching Assistant who is enthusiastic and passionate about mental health and special educational needs. Ideally, you will have experience working with children previously - this could be in any capacity, whether it is voluntary work, babysitting or in a sports setting! Experience with challenging behaviour would also be greatly beneficial.

As a Behaviour Teaching Assistant, you will be working with children aged 5 to 16 with a range of special educational needs, including autism, ADHD, anxiety, trauma and behaviour challenges. You will help keep all the pupils focused and on task in the classroom, and help to manage their behaviour.
