Job description

1:1 Autism Support Assistant – SEN | Benfleet

Full-Time | Immediate Start | Long-Term Role

Are you passionate about supporting children with autism and making a real difference every day?

A welcoming and inclusive SEN in Benfleet is looking to appoint a dedicated 1:1 Autism Support Assistant to join their team on a full-time, long-term basis starting immediately. This is a rewarding opportunity to work closely with a pupil, helping them thrive both academically and socially within a supportive school environment.

About the Role

In this role, you will provide consistent 1:1 support for a child with autism, helping them access learning, manage routines, and feel confident in the classroom. You will work closely with the class teacher, SENCO, and wider support team to deliver tailored strategies that meet the child’s individual needs.

Building a strong, trusting relationship will be key, as you support the pupil in developing communication skills, emotional regulation, and independence.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Providing dedicated 1:1 support for a pupil with autism
  • Supporting the child’s learning, communication, and social development
  • Helping manage routines, transitions, and classroom expectations
  • Implementing strategies to support emotional regulation and behaviour
  • Adapting learning activities to meet individual needs
  • Encouraging confidence, independence, and engagement
  • Working closely with the class teacher, SENCO, and support staff

What We’re Looking For

  • Experience supporting children with autism or SEN
  • A calm, patient, and consistent approach
  • Strong communication and teamwork skills
  • Ability to build positive, trusting relationships with pupils
  • Understanding of behaviour and emotional support strategies
  • A genuine passion for supporting children with additional needs
  • An Enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or willingness to apply)

Why This Role Stands Out

  • A meaningful 1:1 role where you can see real progress
  • Join a supportive and inclusive SEN
  • Full-time, long-term stability
  • Opportunity to develop your experience in autism support
  • Ongoing guidance from your GSL Education consultant

Please be advised that this role requires a strong knowledge and understanding of safeguarding and child protection. Successful applicants must satisfy all background safer recruitment checks, including an enhanced DBS.

If you’re a compassionate and dedicated support assistant ready to make a positive impact, this could be the perfect role for you.
