Job description

If you're hoping to build a career in Educational Psychology, Speech and Language Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Teaching, Social Work or Child Mental Health, this is a fantastic opportunity to gain meaningful, hands-on experience in a supportive primary school.

We're looking for a Graduate SEND Teaching Assistant to provide dedicated 1:1 support for a Key Stage 2 pupil with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and a PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance) profile.

You'll work alongside experienced teachers and SEND professionals, learning from a knowledgeable team while helping one child feel safe, understood and ready to learn.

This role could be perfect if you have...

  • A degree in Psychology, Education, Childhood Studies, Health & Social Care or a related subject.
  • Previous experience supporting children with ASD and PDA, whether through work, placements, volunteering or university experience.
  • A calm, patient and adaptable approach.
  • An interest in child development, SEND or inclusive education.
  • The confidence to build positive relationships with children and staff.

What you'll be doing

  • Providing 1:1 support throughout the school day.
  • Using strategies that help a child with ASD and PDA feel secure and engaged.
  • Supporting learning, emotional regulation and social development.
  • Working closely with teachers and the school's SEND team.
  • Celebrating the small wins that make a big difference.

What you'll need

  • Experience supporting children with ASD and PDA.
  • An Enhanced Child Workforce DBS registered on the Update Service.
  • At least 24 months of referenceable employment or education history.

Learn before you start

We want you to feel confident from day one, so you'll have access to TeamTeach training over the summer, equipping you with practical behaviour support and de-escalation strategies before you begin.

Why join Protocol Education?

  • Weekly PAYE pay, no umbrella companies.
  • FREE access to our online CPD Academy.
  • TeamTeach training before your first day.
  • Ongoing support from a dedicated consultant.
  • Long-term career opportunities within SEND and education.

Whether you're based in Bromley Heath, Downend, Emersons Green, Fishponds, Staple Hill, Mangotsfield or the wider BS16 area, this is an opportunity to gain invaluable experience while making a lasting impact on a child's education.

If you're ready to put your degree into practice and begin a rewarding career supporting children with additional needs, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply today and take your first step towards a career that changes lives, including your own.

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.
