This role is perfect for someone with experience working with children who have Severe Learning Difficulties (SLD), Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties (PMLD), and Autism.

About the Role

As a Complex Needs Teaching Assistant, you will play a vital role in providing tailored support for pupils with complex needs. This includes working with children who have SLD and PMLD, which means they may require significant support with communication, mobility, and personal care. Many pupils also have Autism, so an understanding of sensory needs and a calm, patient approach is essential.

The school fosters a culture of innovation and research-based practices, ensuring the best possible environment for both pupils and staff. Training, coaching, and opportunities for development are provided, making this an excellent opportunity for anyone passionate about special education.

Key Responsibilities
  • Provide one-to-one and group support for pupils with PMLD, SLD, and Autism.
  • Assist with personal care needs, including toileting and feeding, in a respectful and dignified manner.
  • Support pupils in developing communication and independence skills.
  • Collaborate with a multi-disciplinary team to ensure high-quality provision.
  • Use strategies such as Team Teach or sensory-based approaches (if trained) to support behaviour and learning.
What We're Looking For
  • Experience as a Teaching Assistant or Learning Support Assistant in an SEN setting.
  • Proven experience working with children with PMLD, SLD, and Autism.
  • A compassionate, proactive, and flexible approach to supporting pupils' individual needs.
  • Team Teach training is highly desirable but not essential.
  • A commitment to fostering inclusion and supporting the rich cultural heritage of the community in Ealing.
What We Offer
  • A supportive and innovative learning community.
  • Ongoing professional development and training in special educational needs.
  • The opportunity to make a significant impact on the lives of children with complex needs in Ealing.

It is a place where staff are encouraged to develop their skills through coaching, training, and collaboration with other professionals. The school prides itself on its commitment to anti-racism, inclusivity, and celebrating the cultural diversity of its families and staff.

If you are an experienced Complex Needs Teaching Assistant looking for a rewarding role in Ealing, we would love to hear from you. Join a team dedicated to shaping the future of special education.

Apply now to become a valued member of our team and make a real difference in the lives of children with complex needs.
