Learning Support Assistant
Posted 17 April by
Horizon Teachers
Horizon Teachers are working with an SEND School in the Croydon area that are looking to appoint Learning Support Assistants to help cover with staff absences on a long-term, full time basis starting in May, until the end of the academic year in July 2024.
The school caters for students aged 11 - 17 that have Mild Learning Difficulties, such as Autism and being non-verbal. As some of the students in this school have challenging behaviours it would be desirable if you have previous experience supporting students with SEN needs, but this isn't essential.
Being a Learning Support Assistant within this school you will need to be patient, energetic and resilient in nature and be able to be flexible with a positive attitude to create a relationship with the students. This will be a very rewarding role for the right person and will pay up to £550 per week.
What the school are looking for in their Learning Support Assistants:
Why Horizon Teachers:
"One of the best agencies in London. Horizon got me working in a school within 5 days of registering. The staff are all super helpful and committed to finding the right school for you".- 5 Star google review
Horizon Teachers is a specialist Education Recruitment Consultancy that helps Teachers and Support Staff find long term, permanent and interim employment in Primary, Secondary and Special Schools throughout London, the South East, the Midlands and the North of England. As part of the registration process you will be required to have a DBS Check carried out and all original relevant qualifications will need to be sighted and copied before any work placement. For all teaching roles you will need to hold Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or equivalent.
