Start Date: September 2026

Are you passionate about making a real difference in a child’s life? Do you have a calm, patient, and resilient nature?
An inclusive, supportive primary school in the M22 area is looking for a dedicated SEMH Teaching Assistant to join their close-knit team. This role is focused on supporting children who face social, emotional, and mental health challenges, helping them build confidence, manage their emotions, and engage happily with their learning.
One-to-One Support: Working closely with specific pupils who need extra support managing their emotions and behaviors in and out of the classroom.
Creating a Safe Space: Designing and implementing positive behavior plans, helping children de-escalate when they feel overwhelmed.
Building Confidence: Running small-group interventions focused on social skills, self-esteem, and emotional regulation.
Collaboration: Working hand-in-hand with the class teachers, SENCo, and external specialists to ensure the pupils have a consistent, supportive routine.
Proven SEMH Experience: You must have hands-on experience supporting children or young people with Social, Emotional, and Mental Health needs (such as ADHD, anxiety, trauma, or attachment difficulties).
Enhanced DBS Check: You must hold a valid Enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or be willing to apply for a new one immediately).
Naturally Empathetic & Patient: You understand that "challenging behavior" is often communication, and you approach pupils with kindness and curiosity.
Resilient & Adaptable: No two days are the same, and you can stay calm under pressure.
A Supportive Environment: A leadership team that genuinely prioritizes staff well-being and offers continuous professional development (CPD) and training.
Great Community Vibe: Located in the heart of M22 with excellent transport links (bus, tram, and easy access to the M56/M60) and free on-site parking.
Rewarding Work: The chance to see the tangible, positive impact of your support on a young person's life every single day.
