Behaviour Mentor

KS3/4 SEN Teaching Assistant FULL TIME, UNTIL JULY 2027 - STARTING IMMEDIATELY We have worked with this Headteacher for several years now and they have a particular interest in securing the services of an enthusiastic graduate for this particular position. There is lots of training available for the successful position and our SLT run regular CPD for all staff. This role would be ideal for someone considering teacher training for September 2027. The role of a TA is much more "all encompassing" and you will provide some academic support, some 1:1 mentoring, and some "crisis intervention" to support students who need intervention. This is a full time role and will run until July 2027. You will predominantly support young learners who need that "little extra" to reach their potential. Standards are high and the young people in the school are supported from day one with a uniform approach by teachers and support staff, and a calm, positive environment is noticed from the moment you enter the school. Our client enjoys a strong reputation inside the community and are proud of the standards they set. You will be responsible for supporting young learners in a variety of secondary subjects, including Maths, English, Science, Humanities and PE. This role, due to the nature of the students, lends itself to graduates considering Primary or Secondary teacher training as you will obtain a sound understanding of the full curriculum.
