The role

• Communicate effectively with staff, parents, and external professionals
• Create a nurturing, consistent, and structured environment

Requirements
• Experience supporting children with ASD
• A calm, proactive, and compassionate approach
• Ability to work collaboratively within a team
• Relevant qualifications (desirable but not essential)
• Whether you're a seasoned SEN TA or starting your journey in education, this role offers the chance to truly transform lives.
