SEN Learning Support Assistant

Blackley, Manchester | Teaching Personnel | September 2026 Start

Looking for a role where you can genuinely make a difference every day?

Teaching Personnel is recruiting a caring and resilient SEN Learning Support Assistant to join a specialist secondary and post-16 school in Blackley this September.

The school supports young people aged 11-19 with a range of additional learning needs and disabilities. Every student has an EHCP, and the focus is on helping learners build confidence, independence, communication skills, and positive futures.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys building meaningful relationships and supporting young people to overcome barriers to learning.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Working closely with teachers, therapists, and wider support staff.
  • Supporting students throughout the school day, including breaktimes and enrichment activities.
  • Adapting support to meet individual learning and communication needs.

What Makes This Role Different?

No two students are the same, and no two days look alike. You'll be supporting young people with a variety of needs, celebrating achievements both big and small, and playing a key part in helping students reach their personal goals.

We're Looking For Someone Who:

  • Has experience working with children, young people, or vulnerable adults.
  • Can build positive, trusting relationships.
  • Demonstrates patience, empathy, and resilience.
  • Is confident using their own initiative.
  • Remains calm under pressure and responds positively to challenging situations.
