You will learn about their individual needs and adapt your approach in the classroom to suit them. As a SEN Teaching Assistant, you will learn about the cognitive, behavioural and emotional needs of each student and how to attend to these. You will help identify triggers and barriers to learning, as well as implementing your knowledge of psychological theory and apply it in the classroom. This may be in small groups or on a 1-2-1 basis. Above all else, you will help ensure every pupil feels safe and supported in school, and help make the classroom a fun and exciting place!
