A lovely school in Wandsworth has an immediate need for an SEN Teaching Assistant to assist students with Autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

You will have experience working with children and young people with a range of additional needs including but not limited to behavioural needs including ASD, Speech & Language and associated additional learning needs. Applicants with experience of working in Special Education Needs Schools or with a specialism in ASD Autism spectrum disorder would be ideal. The school is especially interested to receive applications from those with Team Teach' training although this is not a necessity. You will need to be flexible, have enthusiasm, motivation, good communication skills and the ability to work with small groups and differentiate well.

You will be employed on a long term temporary contract until the end of the academic year, with a view to becoming a permanent member of staff.
