Sen Teaching Assistant New

Are you the kind of person who loves seeing a child succeed, no matter how big or small the achievement?

One of my lovely mainstream primary schools in Bournemouth is looking for a dedicated SEN Teaching Assistant to join their team this September. This is a full-time, long-term position supporting a child in Year 6 on a 1:1 basis.

The school is looking for someone who can provide consistency, encouragement and a calm, nurturing presence throughout the school day. You'll be helping a pupil access learning, build confidence and feel supported as they prepare for the transition to secondary school.

This isn't just about supporting learning—it's about building trust, celebrating progress and being someone who can make a real difference every single day.

• Have previous experience supporting children with Special Educational Needs.
• Be patient, caring and able to build positive relationships.
• Be confident adapting to the individual needs of the child.
• Work well alongside teachers and the wider SEN team.
• Be committed to working full-time from September.

• Competitive weekly PAYE pay.
• A dedicated consultant who will support you every step of the way.
• Free CPD and training opportunities to continue developing your skills.
• The opportunity to work within a welcoming and supportive school community.
• A rewarding role where you'll genuinely see the impact you're making.

If you're looking for a role where every day is meaningful and you'd love to be part of a fantastic school community, we'd love to hear from you.
