About the Role

We’re looking for a kind, calm, and committed Learning Support Assistant to join a brilliant Special Educational Needs School. You’ll be working closely with pupils who need that extra bit of support to feel confident and succeed in class — helping them find their rhythm and celebrate the small wins that make big differences.

This school’s team is warm, supportive, and values the unique contribution every staff member brings. You’ll be part of a setting where staff genuinely care about each other and where pupils thrive on encouragement and structure.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Supporting pupils with additional learning needs in class and small group settings
  • Building trusted relationships with pupils and helping them feel safe and motivated
  • Working closely with teachers and SENCOs to adapt lessons and provide targeted help
  • Celebrating every milestone — big or small — with your pupils

    • What We’re Looking For

  • Experience working with children or young people (in schools, youth work, or care)
  • A patient, positive attitude and great communication skills
  • Confidence supporting pupils with SEND (autism, ADHD, or SEMH experience is a bonus)
  • A genuine desire to help children feel included, valued, and capable

    • Why Join Protocol Education?

  • Weekly pay through PAYE — no umbrella companies
  • FREE access to our online CPD Academy
  • Personalised support from a friendly local consultant
  • Opportunities across mainstream and SEND settings
  • Referral scheme — earn rewards for bringing friends on board

    • Thrive training available!
    If you’re not already Thrive trained, we’ll support you to complete it for free — giving you even more tools to help children flourish emotionally and academically.
