Job Description
Teaching Assistant – SEND | North Leeds
Salary: £90–£115 per day (based on experience & a bit of sparkle)
️ Hours: Monday to Friday, 32.5 hours – friendly for schools and your social life
Do you speak fluent calm in chaos?
Master the art of the quiet thumbs-up?
Can sense an overload brewing before it even bubbles up?
Then this might just be your kind of classroom.
We’re working with a brilliant specialist school in North Leeds—yes, there's a bus stop nearby and loads of parking—that supports children and young people with autism and a wide range of complex needs. The team is all heart and zero ego. They’re on the lookout for Teaching Assistants who are calm, kind, and ready to make every day feel like a small win.
What to expect:
Small class sizes (6–9 pupils)
A team who really communicates (tea break chats encouraged)
Primary and Secondary phases—variety is the spice of life
Collegues who are part of the journey, not just there for the ride
Your typical day might include:
Tag-teaming with the class teacher like the legend you are
Helping pupils learn and feel good about it
Setting up, tidying up, and making the classroom a calm, inviting space
Picking up loads of SEND knowledge along the way—on the job and through free CPD
We’d love to hear from you if:
You’re calm in a room that’s anything but
You’re curious, compassionate, and up for learning
You’re happy to muck in and bring the positive energy
You’ve got (or are happy to get) an enhanced DBS for Child & Adult Workforce
What’s in it for you?
A consultant who actually calls back
FREE CPD including Team Teach and other SEND essentials like Thrive
Weekly PAYE pay—no umbrella company faff with cheeky deductions like when you go to the cash machine and it takes £1.50 off you to just get out a tenner!!!!!
Real recognition, real growth—you matter here.......
✨ Thrive-trained? You get bonus points.
If not, we’ll train you for free. It’s a great way to stand out and show you’re emotionally switched-on.
Sound like a role that fits you like your favourite lanyard?
Hit apply—we’ll handle the rest. Whether it’s your first SEND role or your fiftieth, we’ve got your back.
Let’s make Mondays feel a bit less... Monday-ish.
Go on, give it a go
