Are you passionate about supporting young people in their educational journey? An inclusive secondary school in Coventry is seeking a dedicated Teaching Assistant to join their SEND team for a long term role to start as soon as the right person is found (ideally September 2024). This is a fantastic opportunity to work in a stimulating environment with excellent facilities, supporting students aged 11 to 18.

The role is for 30 hours per week and would be ideal for someone with SEN experience, looking for work in Schools but who has struggled to find a role to suit because of the 'normal' working hours required in a School.

Note: We do regularly have full-time roles come our way, so if you like the sound of the role, but you need longer hours, then we'd still be keen to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities:

• Provide support and guidance to young people across the school.
• Communicate effectively and build positive relationships with all stakeholders.
• Contribute to extra-curricular activities.
• Organize classroom activities, including preparing and setting out resources.

• Level 2+ Teaching Assistant or Learning Support Assistant qualification or equivalent (Desirable)
