Teaching Assistant (Level 2) - 1:1 SEMH Support

The Role

We are looking to recruit a Level 2 Teaching Assistant to join our Year 5 team as soon as possible to work on a 1:1 basis with a child with SEMH needs. The role is part time (approximately 25hrs per week plus 1/2 unpaid lunch break and including 2 afternoons off per week).

This is a fixed term contract to support a child with emotional needs and so will be for as long as the child is with us.
