Job description

We are seeking a dedicated Support Assistant to join a school for pupils with Profound and Multiple Learning Disabilities (PMLD). This is a highly rewarding role, supporting pupils who have complex learning, physical, sensory, and medical needs.

About the role

Pupils with PMLD require specialist support tailored to their individual needs. Many rely on assistive communication methods, sensory learning approaches, and personalised care routines. As a Support Assistant, you will:

  • Provide one-to-one and small group support in both classroom and personal care settings.
  • Assist with physical and sensory activities designed to engage and stimulate pupils.
  • Support pupils in developing communication, independence, and social interaction skills.
  • Work collaboratively with teachers, therapists, and healthcare professionals to deliver consistent, high-quality support.
  • Promote a safe, structured environment where every pupil can thrive at their own pace.

What we are looking for

  • Experience supporting children or adults with SEND (experience with PMLD, complex medical needs, or non-verbal communication is highly desirable).
  • Patience, resilience, and the ability to remain calm under pressure.
  • A proactive and empathetic approach to supporting pupils with high levels of need.
  • Flexibility and a commitment to working as part of a wider support team.

What we offer

  • Weekly pay through PAYE.
  • Free access to our online CPD Academy, including specialist SEND and Thrive training.
  • Personalised support from a dedicated SEND consultant.
  • Long-term roles in schools where your skills and contribution are genuinely valued.
  • Opportunities to progress and develop within SEND education.

This role offers the chance to make a real difference for pupils with some of the most complex needs in education. Every day brings new challenges, but also the reward of seeing progress, however small, and knowing your support matters.

Apply today to begin your journey in a role where you will be valued, supported, and able to make a lasting impact.

All applicants will require the appropriate qualifications and training for this role. Please see the FAQs on the Protocol Education website for further details.

All pay rates quoted will be inclusive of 12.07% statutory holiday pay. This advert is for a temporary position. In some cases, the option to make this role permanent may become available at a later date.

Protocol Education is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. We undertake safeguarding checks on all workers in accordance with the DfE statutory guidance ‘Keeping Children Safe in Education’, this may also include an online search as part of our due diligence on shortlisted applicants.
We offer FREE online safeguarding and Prevent Duty training to all our workers. All candidates must undertake or have undertaken a valid enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check and subscribe to the DBS Update Service.

Full assistance provided. For details of our privacy policy, please see visit the Protocol Education website.
