The posting

Hours of Work - 28 hours per week: Term time only

Monday - Friday 8:45am - 3:00pm (Actual Salary £16,208 - £16,988) - Fixed term contact until August 2027, due to being linked to a specific child.

We are looking for a caring, patient and resilient SEMH Teaching Assistant to join our dedicated team and provide individualised support to a pupil in Year 6.

This is a rewarding opportunity for someone who understands that children’s behaviour is often a form of communication and who can build a trusting, positive relationship with a child who may experience difficulties with social, emotional and mental health (SEMH).

The successful candidate will work closely with the class teacher, SENCO and wider school team to support the pupil to feel safe, valued and ready to learn, whilst helping them to develop greater independence, confidence and emotional regulation.

The role will include:

  • Providing 1:1 support for a Year 6 pupil throughout the school day.
  • Building a positive, trusting and consistent relationship with the pupil.
  • Supporting the pupil to manage emotions, regulate their behaviour and develop appropriate strategies for coping with challenges.
  • Encouraging engagement in learning and helping the pupil to access the curriculum.
  • Supporting positive behaviour and following agreed strategies and individual plans.
  • Helping the pupil develop their social skills, confidence and independence.
  • Working closely with the class teacher, SENCO and other professionals to ensure consistency of support.
  • Supporting the pupil during less structured times, such as break and lunchtime, where appropriate.

We are looking for someone who:

  • Is calm, patient, compassionate and emotionally resilient.
  • Has experience of, or a strong interest in, supporting children with SEMH needs.
  • Can establish positive relationships whilst maintaining clear and consistent boundaries.
  • Understands the importance of consistency, routine and positive reinforcement.
  • Is able to remain calm and professional when faced with challenging situations.
  • Has high expectations of children and believes passionately in their ability to succeed.
  • Can work effectively as part of a team and communicate well with colleagues and families.
  • Is enthusiastic, reliable and committed to supporting the whole child.

Experience of working with children with SEMH needs is desirable, but we would also welcome applications from individuals who have the right qualities, attitude and commitment and are keen to develop their skills.

What we can offer:

  • A welcoming and supportive school environment.
  • A dedicated and committed staff team.
  • The opportunity to make a genuine difference to a child’s life and educational experience.
  • Support and professional development to help you grow in your role.
  • A rewarding opportunity to develop your experience in supporting children with additional needs.

If you are someone who can see beyond the behaviour, build meaningful relationships and help a child recognise their own strengths and potential, we would love to hear from you.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
