Aspire People are currently seeking dedicated and enthusiastic Sports Teaching Assistants to work across secondary mainstream and SEN schools in Rochdale. This is a rewarding opportunity to support students with SEN (Special Educational Needs) and SEMH (Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs), helping them thrive both academically and personally.

The Role:
This is a varied role where no two days are the same. While your passion for sport will be a key tool in building relationships and engagement, your responsibilities will extend beyond the sports field.

* Help manage and positively influence challenging behaviour 
* Build strong, trusting relationships with students, including those with poor attendance 
* Act as a positive role model, promoting confidence, resilience, and a "can-do" attitude 
* Create a supportive and inclusive learning environment where students feel valued and understood 

About You:

We are looking for individuals who are:
* Passionate about sports and using it as a tool to engage young people 
* Positive, resilient, and able to build rapport with students from diverse backgrounds 
* Confident supporting students with SEN/SEMH and challenging behaviour 
* Committed to making a real difference in students' lives 

Essential / Desired Requirements:
* A sports-related degree or relevant sports qualification (preferred) 
* Experience working with children or young people (through employment, placements, or coaching) 
* Strong communication and interpersonal skills 
* A valid DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to obtain one 
* References covering the last 2 years 

Why Join Aspire People?
We work with a range of supportive schools where personality and experience are highly valued. This is an excellent opportunity to gain further experience in education, particularly for those considering careers in teaching, coaching, or youth work
