About the Role

We’re looking for a caring and motivated SEND Teaching Assistant to join a supportive and inclusive school in Bexhill.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone passionate about education and making a real difference in young people’s lives.

  • Patient, reliable, and enthusiastic approach.

  • Strong communication and teamwork skills.

  • An Enhanced DBS certificate registered on the Update Service is essential.

Desirable:

  • Level 2 or Level 3 Teaching Assistant qualification (or equivalent).

  • Experience in a mainstream or special school environment.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
You must hold an Enhanced DBS check registered on the Update Service. All appointments are subject to thorough safeguarding and reference checks.
