We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic and dedicated SEND Teaching Assistant to support teaching with pupils who have a wide range of needs, including autism within our school.

The successful candidate could be asked to work with any age group in the school but primarily in Year 4 with a child with additional needs and an EHCP.

Experience of working with children with SEND is desirable, but not essential. Full training and support are given.

This is a temporary (named child contract) position in the first instance, likely needed until August 2028 for term time plus training days.

Langtoft Primary School is an exciting place to work. We continue to strive to improve the attainment and progress of pupils within a creative and vibrant learning atmosphere. We can offer you a great team of professionals, children with outstanding behaviour and a supportive school community.

All appointments are subject to satisfactory references, health and DBS check.

The school has an Induction Programme and an ongoing commitment of staff professional development.

This post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act (ROA) 1974. The amendments to the ROA 1974 (Exceptions Order 1975, (amended 2013 and 2020)) provide that when applying for certain jobs and activities, certain spent convictions and cautions are ‘protected’, so they do not need to be disclosed to employers, and if they are disclosed, employers cannot take them into account. The MOJ’s guidance on the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and the Exceptions Order 1975, provides information about which convictions must be declared during job applications and related exceptions and further information about filtering offences can be found in the DBS filtering guide
