Make a Difference Where It Matters Most

A caring and inclusive primary school in Aylesbury is looking for a compassionate and committed SEN LSA to join their team immediately. This role is ideal for someone with a genuine passion for supporting children with Special Educational Needs (SEN), including those with Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH) needs.

You'll work closely with pupils who require extra support to manage emotions, build resilience, and fully engage with their learning - both on a one-to-one basis and in small groups.

  • Supporting pupils with SEN and SEMH needs in class and through targeted interventions

  • Assisting in the delivery of personalised learning plans (PLPs)

  • Helping pupils develop emotional regulation and positive behaviour strategies

  • Building strong, trusting relationships with pupils to create a safe and nurturing environment

  • Collaborating with teaching staff, the SENCO, parents, and external agencies

  • Contributing to the review and implementation of behaviour and support plans

  • Encouraging independence and promoting positive learning outcomes for all pupils

  • Experience working with children with SEMH and/or SEN (highly desirable)

  • Confident in managing challenging behaviour with effective de-escalation techniques

  • Calm, empathetic, and resilient when supporting emotional and educational needs

  • A positive, proactive attitude and a strong team player

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

  • Additional training such as Team Teach, trauma-informed practice, or mental health awareness is a bonus

  • Join a school with a strong focus on emotional wellbeing and inclusion

  • Regular CPD and training to grow your skillset

  • Supportive and experienced staff team

  • Opportunities to progress into higher-level support roles or teacher training in the future

  • The chance to make a real, lasting difference to the lives of young learners
