Learning Support Assistant - SEND

Are you an experienced LSA, Teaching Assistant, Youth Worker or SEND professional who thrives on making a real difference?

I'm currently recruiting for a brilliant primary school in Grays looking for a passionate and resilient SEND Learning Support Assistant to join their team.

The school supports a number of children with EHCPs, additional needs and challenging behaviour, and they are looking for someone who can build strong, trusting relationships while providing consistent, calm and nurturing support.

You will be someone who:

Has experience supporting children with SEND and/or challenging behaviour
Is patient, calm and emotionally resilient
Can build positive relationships with pupils who may struggle to regulate their emotions
Understands that behaviour is communication
Can provide consistent boundaries alongside warmth and empathy
Is confident working on a 1:1 and small-group basis
Wants to make a genuine difference to children's lives

What's on offer?

A supportive school environment, a fantastic team around you and the opportunity to work closely with children who genuinely benefit from having the right adult in their corner.

This isn't simply a role where you'll be "supporting behaviour".

It's about understanding the child behind the behaviour, celebrating their successes and helping them develop the confidence and skills to thrive.

If you're looking for a role where no two days are the same and your work genuinely matters, I'd love to hear from you.

Interested? Apply now to find out more!
