About the Role We are looking for a motivated, proactive and caring SEN Teaching Assistant to join a supportive primary school following the October half-term break. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who is passionate about supporting children with additional needs and is looking to develop their experience within a primary school setting. The school is particularly interested in candidates who are career-driven, enthusiastic and keen to progress into teaching or a longer-term education career. The successful candidate will work as part of a wider team of LSAs, teachers and SEN staff to provide consistent, nurturing support for pupils with additional needs. Key Responsibilities Provide positive and proactive support to pupils across the classroom and wider school environment. Support children to access learning through visual resources, structured activities, movement breaks and clear routines. Build positive relationships with pupils and help them develop confidence, independence and engagement. Support children who may experience difficulties with communication, emotional regulation or behaviour. Use calm, consistent and appropriate language when supporting children who become dysregulated. Recognise potential triggers and respond proactively before situations escalate. Support structured play, transitions and classroom routines. Follow individual support plans and guidance from teachers, SEN staff and external professionals. Use strategies such as visuals, Makaton/signing and other communication approaches where appropriate. Contribute positively to the wider classroom, supporting the class teacher and other pupils rather than focusing solely on individual support. Maintain a professional, positive and solution-focused attitude at all times. Work collaboratively with teachers, LSAs and school leadership to ensure consistent approaches are followed. About the Children The school supports pupils with a range of additional needs, including children with ASD, communication needs and difficulties with emotional regulation. One pupil currently receiving additional support benefits from: Calm and consistent communication Visual supports Makaton/signing Movement breaks Structured play Predictable routines and clear transitions Consistent responses to unsafe or dysregulated behaviour The school has an established support plan and receives guidance from the Hounslow Inclusion Team. The successful candidate will receive guidance from experienced staff and will be expected to follow agreed strategies consistently. This is not a dedicated 1:1 role. Support for individual pupils is shared across a wider team, meaning the successful candidate will also have an important role in supporting the wider class and school environment. The Ideal Candidate The school is particularly interested in someone who is: Proactive – sees what needs doing and gets involved without waiting to be asked. Energetic and enthusiastic about working with children. Patient, calm and emotionally aware. Confident supporting children with SEN and/or challenging behaviour. Able to take direction and consistently implement agreed strategies. A strong team player who is willing to support the class teacher and wider staff team. Reliable and committed to a long-term placement. Keen to learn and develop their SEN knowledge. Interested in progressing their career in education, potentially towards teacher training. Previous experience with ASD, Makaton, Zones of Regulation, sensory needs or communication difficulties would be advantageous, but training and support can be provided for the right candidate. Training & Development The school values staff development and has provided permanent staff with training around ASD and Zones of Regulation. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to further develop their understanding of: Autism and communication Emotional regulation Zones of Regulation Sensory and movement strategies Positive behaviour support Visual communication Supporting children to become more independent This could be particularly valuable for someone looking to build experience before progressing into teacher training or a longer-term career in education. Why Apply? This is an opportunity to join a school where the right candidate can make a genuine difference while developing their SEN experience. The school has previously had success with motivated early-career LSAs who have developed within the role and subsequently progressed into permanent positions. For the right person, there is potential for this to become more than simply a supply placement — the school is looking for someone who wants to become part of the team and contribute positively over the long term. Requirements Previous experience working with children is desirable. SEN experience is desirable but not essential for the right candidate. Strong communication and interpersonal skills. A proactive and positive approach. Commitment to safeguarding and child welfare. Reliability and willingness to commit to a long-term placement. Enhanced DBS or willingness to obtain one.…About the Role We are looking for a motivated, proactive and caring SEN Teaching Assistant to join a supportive primary school following the October half-term break.

Many of our long-term roles convert to permanent roles. We make it far easier than a traditional agency for teachers to convert temporary positions into permanent ones.

What areas do you cover?

We work with over 400 schools in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol and Leeds.

How much work is there?

Generally speaking, we have consistently high demand for daily supply teachers in Greater London, Manchester Birmingham, Bristol and Leeds. Teaching assistant work is generally higher for long-term roles rather than daily supply cover.

Do you have primary, secondary or nursery jobs?

Yes. We can help with daily supply and long-term jobs in nurseries, primary schools and secondary schools. We don't typically have jobs in further education or college.

Do you have work for cover supervisors, invigilators, or school administrators?

While the majority of our work is for teachers and teaching assistants, we do also have work for cover supervisors and invigilators. Explain what you are looking for when you sign up and our team will help you.

What subjects do you cover?

We cover all subjects taught in primary and secondary schools - if you're not sure if we can help you with what you're looking for, please register and arrange to speak to a member of our Teacher Success team.

Do you do school admin jobs?

If you're looking for teaching or teaching assistant roles, and would also be interested in admin roles, it's worth letting us know. If you're only looking for admin roles, we might not be the place for you, as this isn't what we specialise in.

How is Zen different from a recruitment agency?

Zen Educate is a technology platform to connect teachers with schools directly. Agencies are an expensive middleman between schools and teachers. They have to charge high commissions because their booking procedures are largely manual and run on outdated systems. Because we run more of the process online or on your phone, we create an experience that delights schools and teachers at a fraction of the cost.
