Are you looking for a new challenging role in Special Educational Needs?

Are you dedicated and passionate about helping people reach their full potential?

We are currently recruiting for a Special Educational Needs Teaching Assistant position in the Wandsworth area.

  • preparing learning materials under the supervision of the teacher
  • working inside or outside the classroom with individuals or groups
  • adapting support according to needs
  • looking after children's physical, social and emotional welfare
  • creating a stimulating environment
