We’re working with a forward-thinking special school in Maidenhead that provides individualised, evidence-based education to autistic children and young people aged 4–16. Their approach blends structure, consistency and compassion – offering pupils the tools they need to thrive both academically and emotionally.
They’re looking for a Teaching Assistant to join their team – someone who is calm, proactive and truly enjoys helping children access learning in a way that works for them. You’ll work alongside teachers, therapists and behaviour teams in a setting that’s well-resourced, positive and deeply focused on each child’s progress.
What’s the role?
  • Supporting learners with communication, emotional regulation and day-to-day routines
  • Following tailored learning plans, visual aids and strategies rooted in ABA and evidence-based practice
  • Working 1:1 and in small groups in a calm, structured and supportive environment
  • Ongoing training and long-term progression opportunities – the school is passionate about developing their team
What we’re looking for:
  • Someone patient, empathetic and consistent – strong relationships are key here
  • Experience in SEN or autism is a bonus, but not essential – the right attitude goes a long way
  • Confident to support with personal care and sensory regulation, where needed
  • Someone who’s happy to work closely with a multidisciplinary team and open to learn. 

📅 Start date: September (or earlier if you’re ready!)
💰 Pay: £96-110.00 per day.
