Be Part of Something New - Help Children Thrive!
Are you passionate about supporting children with additional needs? Do you want to be part of an exciting development in SEND education across Lincolnshire?

We are looking for caring, enthusiastic and proactive SEND Teaching Assistants to work within specialist SEND hubs based in mainstream primary schools around Wragby, Horncastle and the surrounding areas.

This is an exciting opportunity to be part of Lincolnshire''s growing SEND provision!

Lincolnshire County Council is investing in expanding SEND hubs across mainstream schools, giving more children with additional needs the opportunity to access specialist support while remaining part of their local school community.

These hubs offer a different approach to education, combining the benefits of mainstream schooling with smaller, more structured learning environments, specialist resources and additional support.

Children are supported through personalised learning, with opportunities to access wider school activities, develop friendships and build confidence and independence.

What Will You Be Doing?
Supporting primary-aged children with a range of special educational needs.
Providing 1:1 and small-group support within a specialist hub environment.
Helping children access learning through personalised activities and adapted resources.

Encouraging positive behaviour, emotional regulation and social interaction.
Using visual aids, communication strategies and sensory activities to support learning.
Building positive, trusting relationships with children.
Encouraging independence, confidence and participation in school life.
Working closely with teachers, SENDCos and other professionals to support individual needs.
Who Are We Looking For?
We are interested in candidates from a variety of backgrounds. Previous experience in a school is beneficial, but we are also keen to hear from people with transferable skills.

Experience in any of the following would be particularly valuable:

SEND or mainstream primary education.
Special schools or specialist provisions.
Residential children''s homes.

Autism and learning disability support.
Healthcare, mental health or therapeutic settings.

What''s on Offer?
Competitive daily pay of -95110.
Full-time and part-time opportunities.
Monday to Friday, 8:30am-3:30pm.
Term-time-only working.
Long-term opportunities.
The chance to be involved in the development of expanding SEND provision.
Valuable experience in specialist primary education.
The opportunity to develop specialist SEND skills and knowledge.
A rewarding role where you can make a genuine difference to children''s lives.
