Teaching Assistant

Desian Education are working in partnership with a welcoming primary school in Kirkby seeking dedicated and experienced Teaching Assistants to join their team after half term. We currently have two exciting 1:1 support opportunities available, both offering full-time hours and long-term stability.

1:1 Teaching Assistant - Year 4 Pupil (SEMH)

We are also recruiting for an experienced Teaching Assistant to support a Year 4 pupil with SEMH needs who is currently based within a specialist provision.

This unique role will initially involve working with the pupil within his current setting before supporting his transition back into mainstream education in January 2027. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to build a strong working relationship with the pupil and gain valuable insight into the strategies that best support his progress and engagement.

The pupil can present with challenging behaviours, therefore this role requires a resilient and experienced professional who can remain calm, consistent, and positive in demanding situations.

What We Offer:

Full-time, long-term opportunities

Competitive rates of pay

Ongoing support from a dedicated consultant

The opportunity to make a real difference to children's educational journeys

Supportive school environments and staff teams
