Classroom Support Assistant

Job Description

Zest Education is currently seeking a dedicated and compassionate Classroom Support Assistant to join a special educational needs school in Burton-on-Trent. This rewarding role is set to begin in ASAP and offers the potential for a long-term position, with the possibility of permanent employment for the right candidate.

In this role, you will be required to commit to Monday-Friday, from 8:30 am to 3:30 pm. The school caters for students ranging from the ages of 5 to 19 who have autism, speech and language disorders, moderate to severe learning difficulties, and associated behavioural challenges.

As a Classroom Support Assistant, you will play a vital role in providing emotional and physical support to the students, helping them develop as individuals and engage with the world around them. Your responsibilities will include working closely with individual students and small groups, assisting with classroom preparation and materials, and fostering positive relationships to promote interaction and learning.

While previous experience in an SEN/ASC environment would be desirable, we believe that excellent support skills, motivation, personal qualities, and resilience are just as important. This challenging yet rewarding role requires individuals who are resilient and confident in managing challenging behaviours.

If you possess the qualities necessary to thrive in this role and are passionate about making a positive impact on the lives of students with special educational needs, then we would love to hear from you.

If you are interested in this position or want to find out more, email Steph at steph@zesteducation.co.uk or ‘apply for job’ at the top of the page to submit your details.

Zest Education are an REC audited agency and are dedicated to safeguarding children. All candidates must hold an enhanced DBS (or allow us to process one for you) and be registered to the DBS Update Service, be able to provide references to cover the last two years and successfully pass all other necessary safeguarding checks prior to clearance for work.

Salary is dependent on experience, training, or qualifications. The minimum experience, training, or qualifications required for this position are recent school-based experience (within the last 5 years within a school that teaches the British Curriculum) and/or care-based experience within the last 5 years.

The role advertised is for temporary supply work.
