Are you passionate about supporting children with additional needs and helping them reach their full potential?
Pink Tile Education is working with a welcoming specialist SEND school in Chichester that is looking for a caring, patient and enthusiastic Teaching Assistant to join its team as soon as possible.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who wants to make a real difference to pupils’ lives, supporting their learning, development and independence in a nurturing and inclusive environment.
The school supports children and young people aged 5–16 with a range of complex learning needs and disabilities. Pupils have Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs), with needs including speech and language difficulties, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia and other additional learning needs.
The school provides a supportive environment where learning is tailored to individual abilities. Staff work closely together to help pupils develop their communication, confidence, independence and academic skills.
As a SEND Teaching Assistant, you will work alongside teachers and other members of the school team to support pupils throughout the school day.
Your responsibilities will include:
Supporting pupils with their learning and individual development.
Helping deliver engaging, accessible classroom activities.
Providing encouragement and reassurance to help pupils feel confident and included.
Supporting communication, social interaction and independence.
Helping pupils access the curriculum at their own level and pace.
Following individual support plans and guidance from teaching staff.
Supporting positive behaviour and helping maintain a safe, structured learning environment.
Working collaboratively with teachers and other professionals to meet pupils’ needs.
We’re keen to hear from candidates who are:
Patient, caring and enthusiastic about working with children with SEND.
Reliable, proactive and willing to get involved.
Confident building positive relationships with pupils.
Able to adapt to different needs and situations.
Happy to work as part of a supportive team.
Experienced in SEND, special schools, care, education or similar settings — although transferable experience may also be considered.
Most importantly, you’ll have a genuine desire to help children learn, develop and achieve their individual goals.
£94 per day, including 12.07% PAYE holiday pay.
Consistent weekday hours, 8:30am–3:30pm.
An immediate start.
Experience within a specialist SEND school.
The opportunity to build your skills and experience.
Temp-to-perm opportunities for the right fit, offering the potential to secure a longer-term position.
