Remedy are currently working with a warm and inclusive mainstream primary school in Southwark and they are seeking a dedicated 1:1 SEN Teaching Assistant to support a Year 3 pupil with ODD and Autism/ASD. This is a rewarding opportunity to provide consistent, tailored support and make a meaningful impact on a child's educational and emotional development.

Role Details

  • Role: 1:1 SEN Teaching Assistant
  • Setting: Mainstream Primary School
