Are you someone who’s great with kids and looking to build a career in mental health, psychology, or education? Want a role where you can genuinely make a difference every day?
We’re looking for a caring, patient, and enthusiastic SEN Teaching Assistant to join a fantastic Primary SEN school in East Birmingham. You’ll be working closely with children who have Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and EHCPs (Education, Health and Care Plans)—supporting them in school and helping them feel safe, supported, and ready to learn.
What the Role Involves:
You’ll be working alongside experienced teachers and support staff to:
Give one-to-one and small group support to children with autism
Help create a calm and structured classroom where pupils feel comfortable
Support with learning activities, emotional regulation, and communication
Be a positive role model, encouraging confidence and independence
Work closely with the wider team to make sure each child gets the help they need
Who This Is Perfect For:
This role is great if you:
Want hands-on experience before going into psychology, mental health, therapy, SEN teaching, or youth work
Are a graduate in something like psychology, education, or social work—or just have a passion for helping kids
Have experience working with children or young people (in schools, youth groups, care work, etc.)
Are calm under pressure, kind, and able to build trust with pupils who might find school challenging
What You’ll Need:
A positive, caring attitude and a real interest in SEN or mental health
Good communication and teamworking skills
A willingness to get stuck in and learn on the job
A Child DBS on the Update Service (or be happy to apply for one)
Why Join Us?
Real experience working with children with autism and additional needs
Weekly pay and regular hours
Support from a friendly and experienced consultant
A great stepping stone into careers like educational psychology, counselling, speech and language therapy, and more
