Job description

Male ASD Teaching Assistant - ASAP Start - Long term, full time

  • ASD Teaching Assistant
  • Assisting ASD students in Secondary classes
  • 6 pupils in a class with 2 x Teaching Assistants

A unique Special Needs school with a community feel, in the London borough of Greenwich, South East London is recruiting a number of people to join as new Teaching Assistants. The successful Teaching Assistant applicants will join a highly successful team and start as soon as possible. You will be responsible for assisting Secondary aged students in a small ASD in class. The student doesn't react well to females and can be aggressive towards women; since he has these tendencies and given that the job will entail some personal care (feeding, changing etc.) the school are ideally looking for a male TA but females with the experience, skills and resilience to work with this student are welcome to apply.

This SEN school is very friendly and small but well resourced, with the best available resources to support creative multi-sensory teaching and learning. Starting ASAP, the successful LSA/SEN TA will be offered a long term full time role until the end of the academic year with the possibility of a permanent contract.

The school will invest heavily in your development and encourages career progression/professional development through regular CPD training. Permanent contracts will be offered to those who distinguish themselves this year - this is the way the school has recruited their TA staff for the last 4 years and the vast majority of those appointed in this way do get contracts
