Job description

Step Teachers currently have an opportunity for an SEN Teaching Assistant based at an Alternate provision provider in Stowmarket. This is a full-time position due to start in September 2021. 
 
You will be guided by the teacher who will cascade the outcomes required for the week ahead. This will also be a mentoring role where you will provide guidance and be a supportive figure for the learner. We will welcome applications from candidates with Team Teach or other de-escalation training.
 
The School has asked for a proficient SEN T/A that has the following attributes:
  • Behaviour Management (SEMH)
  • Ability to manage a 121 pupil and be able to react quickly to any issues
  • Ambitious and career-focused applicants particularly welcome
Step Teachers are an agency listed as an approved supplier on the Crown Commercial Service.  This is a new framework for schools to use, ensuring they have access to reputable agencies that meet certain safeguarding and recruitment guidelines.  The DfE are heavily marketing this service across schools and we would strongly suggest making sure you are registered with a CCS-approved agency moving forwards.  Registering with Step Teachers ensures you are working for a trusted partner of the DfE.
 
To be eligible to apply for this role through Step Teachers you will first need to undergo our registration process which includes; a face to face interview, full referencing, qualification checks, and the obligatory safeguarding checks as step teachers are committed to the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff to share this commitment.
