SEN Teaching Assistant - Part Time / Full Time -Folkestone

Do you have a passion for early years education? Are you looking for more flexibility? Are you looking for a better work life balance?

If you feel passionate about working in a primary school environment and can help children to learn and thrive with encouraging support, then the schools we are working with could be your ideal next assignment.

At Academics (Kent), we pride ourselves on delivering community in the classroom. We believe that happy teaching assistants create a better environment for children to learn and thrive. We always listen carefully to our candidates preferences (availability, location, year group, etc.). We offer many great benefits to joining and create a positive experience for people to thrive.

We are currently working with a primary school in need of a high level teaching assistant, to join their school on a full time basis. SEND experience or qualifications are required.

We offer-

  • Amazing pay rates (Between £90 - £100 per day PAYE)
  • Flexibility- We offer all of our candidate the opportunity to choose the days and where they work, allowing them to commit fully to their life outside of the classroom
  • ASAP start, or a start date that works for you.
  • The ability to "try before you buy" with schools- allowing you to select your next permanent position based on your experiences on supply.
  • Additional support from our dedicated staff throughout all of your placements.
  • Temp to perm contracts
  • Refer a friend scheme that allows you to earn up to £125 of love to shop vouchers for every education professional you refer to us.

If your experience of working with education recruitment agencies has left you feeling frustrated or jaded, you may have decided they're all the same. At Academics we provide a refreshingly human experience to working supply. The supply teachers and teaching assistants we work with see the difference every day.

If you can't take our word for it, take one of our candidates word for it:
