Looking for a role where you can make every day count?

The smallest moments can have the biggest impact. A smile, a breakthrough, a boost of confidence. As a SEND Support Assistant, you'll be helping children overcome barriers, celebrate achievements, and enjoy learning every single day.

We're looking for compassionate and dedicated individuals to join our team this September, supporting children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) in welcoming schools.

  • Working closely with teachers and SEND professionals to help pupils reach their full potential
  • Creating a safe, supportive, and engaging learning environment

We're looking for someone who has

  • At least 2 years' experience supporting children or young people in an educational setting
  • Experience working with children with SEND
  • A patient, caring, and positive approach
  • Strong communication and teamwork skills
  • A genuine passion for helping children succeed

A current Enhanced DBS on the Update Service is preferred, although we can support you with obtaining one if needed.

Why join Protocol Education?

When you join us, you'll be supported from day one with:

  • Weekly PAYE pay, no umbrella companies
  • FREE access to our online CPD Academy
  • A dedicated consultant who'll support you throughout your journey
  • Opportunities across mainstream, specialist SEND, and alternative provision schools
  • A simple registration process and local placements
  • A referral scheme where you can earn rewards for recommending friends

If you're ready to use your experience to make a lasting difference in children's lives, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply today and take the next step in your SEND career this September.
