Teaching Assistant

We are seeking compassionate, resilient Teaching Assistants to join a highly individualised alternative provision supporting children and young people who have struggled to thrive in mainstream education.

This is not a traditional classroom setting. Our provision is built around relationships first, emotional regulation, and meeting young people exactly where they are. Many of our pupils have experienced trauma, anxiety, school refusal, or social and emotional challenges — and our work focuses on rebuilding trust, confidence, and a sense of belonging.

Our approach

• Small group and 1:1 learning in calm, therapeutic environments
• A strong focus on wellbeing, emotional literacy, and self-regulation
• Trauma-informed, nurture-based practice
• Flexible, creative learning pathways tailored to each individual
• Close collaboration with families and professionals to support the whole child
