Greenford (UB6) | Supply & Long-term opportunities
We’re looking for experienced SEN Teaching Assistants to join a specialist school in Greenford, supporting pupils with Autism (ASC) and PMLD.
This is a setting for people who understand complex needs properly — not a stepping stone from mainstream.
Most pupils are pre-verbal, have high sensory needs, and require consistent, hands-on support throughout the day.
The role
Supporting pupils on a 1:1 and small group basis
Working closely with the class teacher and therapists
Supporting sensory-based learning and daily routines
Assisting with personal care (feeding, toileting, changing)
Helping pupils stay engaged, regulated and safe
What they’re looking for
Experience with ASC and/or PMLD (essential)
Comfortable with personal care
Someone proactive and switched on – not waiting for direction constantly
Reliable and consistent — pupils need familiar faces
Physically able to support pupils where required
What the school is like
Structured and well-run — staff know what’s expected
Strong team culture, with good support in class
High standards, but fair
Pupils who benefit massively from the right adults around them
The reality
This isn’t an easy role, but it’s a rewarding one if you’re the right person.
They don’t need extra bodies — they need people who can come in, get involved, and build trust with the pupils.
What’s on offer
Regular work, especially heading into Autumn
Opportunity to move into a long-term role
Chance to attend a trial/observation day before committing
A setting that will keep strong staff on
Next steps
If you’ve worked in a similar environment and know this is your area, it’s worth a conversation.
We can talk you through the school properly and arrange a visit so you can see if it’s the right fit before committing.
