Job Description

SEN Teaching Assistant (SEMH) – Full Time

Chesham | April Start

Salary | £95-£110

Not every classroom success story starts with academics — sometimes it starts with trust, patience, and the right support.

If you’re someone who understands the importance of emotional wellbeing in education, this could be the role where you make your biggest impact yet.

Supply Desk is working with a supportive and forward-thinking school in Chesham, seeking a resilient and compassionate SEN Teaching Assistant to support pupils with Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs. This is a full-time opportunity to become a consistent, positive presence in a child’s school journey.

The Impact You’ll Make

In this role, no two days will look the same — and that’s exactly what makes it so rewarding. You’ll be helping students navigate challenges, build confidence, and re-engage with learning in a way that works for them.

You might find yourself:

Being the calm, steady support, a pupil relies on during challenging moments
Turning small breakthroughs into big wins — whether that’s engagement, behaviour, or confidence
Supporting both 1:1 and small group interventions tailored to individual needs
Working closely with teachers and SEN staff to create a structured, supportive environment
Encouraging positive behaviour through consistency, understanding, and clear boundaries
What You Bring

This role isn’t about being perfect — it’s about being patient, consistent, and genuinely invested in helping young people succeed.

You’ll likely:

Have experience working with SEN, particularly SEMH or challenging behaviour
Be naturally resilient, calm under pressure, and emotionally intelligent
Build strong, trusting relationships with pupils who need extra support
Have a team-focused mindset and a willingness to learn and adapt
Bring energy, empathy, and a real passion for supporting young people
What You’ll Gain

This is more than just a job — it’s an opportunity to grow your skills in a meaningful and supported environment.

Expect:

A welcoming school with a strong, supportive team around you
Ongoing training and development to strengthen your SEN skillset
The chance to build invaluable experience in SEMH support
A role where your contribution is seen, valued, and impactful
Take the Next Step

If you’re ready for a role where you can truly change the direction of a child’s day — and potentially their future — we’d love to hear from you.
