Job Description:
SEN Teaching Assistant - High Needs Support (Year 7/8)
Location: Blackburn, Lancashire
Salary: £110.88 - £120.07 per day
Contract: Full-Time, Long-Term (Immediate Start)
Category: Education / SEND Support
The Opportunity
Are you a resilient and proactive Teaching Assistant looking for a stable, long-term role in Blackburn? We are currently recruiting for a unique position within a specialist high-needs provision. You will be the dedicated support for a consistent, small group of just 8 pupils across Year 7 and 8.
Because this group is taught by one lead teacher in a self-contained setting, you will provide the essential continuity these students need. This is a chance to build genuine, transformative relationships with learners who require a firm yet empathetic approach.
Key Responsibilities
*Provide full-time classroom support to a high-needs group of 8 pupils.
*Utilise your initiative to identify and de-escalate potential behavioural triggers before they escalate.
*Work closely with the class teacher to deliver a consistent, safe, and engaging learning environment.
*Apply behaviour management strategies tailored to students with complex SEMH and behavioural needs.
What We Are Looking For
*Proven Experience: You must have a background in supporting challenging behaviour, ideally within an Alternative Provision (AP) or SEND setting.
*Proactive Mindset: We need someone who can work independently and use their initiative to manage classroom dynamics.
*De-escalation Skills:Team Teach or similar positive handling training is highly desirable but not essential if you have significant relevant experience.
*Commitment: This is a long-term position. We need a reliable professional who can offer these students the stability they deserve.
Why This Role?
*Immediate Start: Skip the long wait times; we need you in the classroom ASAP.
*Small Group Focus: Work intensely with just 8 pupils, allowing for real progress and rapport building.
*Supportive Environment: You will be part of a tight-knit team dedicated to student welfare and staff development.
Apply Now: If you are a confident, behaviour-focused TA ready for a new challenge in Blackburn, please submit your CV today for an immediate interview.
