SEND TA – Multiple September Vacancies

East London | £92 - £125+ per day | Full-Time & Part-Time | 1st September Starts

Schools may be closed for summer but September certainly isn't quiet.

Over the last few days, Rising Hope Education has received a significant number of urgent September requirements from our partner schools across East London, all looking to have the right people in place for the start of the new academic year.

As a specialist SEND & Inclusion recruitment agency, we're going to be working tirelessly over the next two weeks to get these positions filled but importantly, filled with the right people.

We currently have opportunities across Tower Hamlets, Greenwich, Newham, Redbridge, Barking & Dagenham and surrounding East London areas, ranging from mild additional needs within mainstream primary schools through to more complex needs within specialist SEN environments.

Current opportunities include:

• 2-day-per-week 1:1 SEND position within a mainstream primary school
• Full-time 1:1 autism support role within KS1
• Three Teaching Assistant positions within a specialist SEN school
• Mainstream general SEND support roles across East London
• SEND Teaching Assistant opportunities in Newham
• Two opportunities in the Redbridge/Ilford area
• Four positions within a specialist SEN school in Barking & Dagenham
• Additional SEND opportunities across Tower Hamlets, Greenwich and Waltham Forest

Some positions require previous SEND experience. Others don't.

For a number of our specialist-school opportunities, full training and ongoing support can be provided.

What matters to us is finding the right position for your level of experience, personality, strengths and longer-term ambitions.

Who should contact us?

You might already be an experienced SEN Teaching Assistant looking for your next school.

You might come from a care, support work, psychology, youth work, behaviour or child-development background and be considering moving into SEND.

Or you might simply be wondering whether this is a career you could be good at.

Have a conversation with us.

You do not initially need to register with Rising Hope Education simply to discuss these opportunities.

For the majority of the positions we're currently recruiting for, we are directly selecting the candidates we believe are best suited to represent us within our partner schools.

That means our first conversation isn't about completing registration paperwork.

It's about understanding you.

Why SEND?

Working within SEND can be one of the most rewarding careers in education.

It can also be challenging.

Understanding that balance is incredibly important.

Behaviour can be communication. Progress isn't always measured academically. Sometimes the biggest achievement of someone's week might look incredibly small to somebody who doesn't understand the child.

That's why empathy, patience, consistency and the willingness to understand why a child behaves or communicates in a particular way can be more important than simply having years of classroom experience.

Once you begin to understand SEND properly, the way you approach supporting children can completely change.

More than finding you a placement

Rising Hope Education works exclusively within SEND and Inclusion.

We want to understand not only where you are now, but where you're trying to get to.

If you want to develop into a more specialist SEND position, we'll support that development.

If you're an aspiring teacher, psychologist, therapist or SEND professional, we want the experience you gain through us to help move you towards that goal.

Even if your ultimate career ambition takes you outside education altogether, we want to be a catalyst in helping you develop the skills, experience and confidence to get there.

Your development matters to us.

September is approaching quickly.

Our schools want these positions resolved before pupils return, and we'll be speaking with candidates throughout this week and next.

If you're an experienced SEND Teaching Assistant, considering moving into SEND, or simply want some straightforward advice about whether your experience could be suitable:
