SEN Teaching Assistant – KS2

Hastings, East Sussex | Full-Time | £92–£105 per day

A TA role where you can genuinely make a difference

We’re working with a Hastings-based primary school that is looking for a reliable and proactive Teaching Assistant to join their lower KS2 team.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys being in the classroom, builds strong relationships with pupils and staff, and knows how to provide support without needing to be told what to do every five minutes.

You’ll be working alongside the class teacher to support learning, classroom routines and individual pupils, helping to create a calm and productive environment where children can get the most from their school day.

The role

• Supporting pupils in lower KS3

• Working closely with the class teacher to support lessons and learning

• Providing additional support to pupils who need extra help

• Working with individuals and small groups

• Helping with classroom organisation and day-to-day routines

• Supporting positive behaviour and engagement

• Building positive, professional relationships with pupils and staff

• Adapting your approach to suit different pupils and their needs

What we’re looking for

• Previous experience working with children in a school or similar educational setting

• A genuine interest in supporting children’s learning and development

• Confident working as part of a wider school team

• A calm, patient and consistent approach

• Good communication and classroom-management skills

• Someone dependable, punctual and able to commit to the role

• An enhanced DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to obtain one

• UK right to work

Experience supporting pupils with SEND would be particularly useful, but isn’t essential.
