A mainstream primary school in Leamington Spa is looking for a full-time Teaching Assistant to join after Easter. This isn't a general support role. It's a position for someone who's worked in classrooms before, who understands both behaviour support and learning, and who can step in with confidence from day one.
If you've been in this work long enough to know what a settled classroom feels like - and what it takes to get there - this could be the right move.
What you'll be doing:
* Supporting pupils with a range of SEND needs, including autism, ADHD, and social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) difficulties
* Adapting your approach to meet sensory, communication, and behaviour needs within the same school day
* Working 1:1 and in small groups to reinforce learning and build confidence
* Helping to maintain calm, structured classroom environments where all pupils can access learning
* Contributing to behaviour support plans and keeping the SENCO and class teacher informed
* Assisting with morning routines, transitions, and other key moments where pupils need extra support
* Bringing consistency and reliability to pupils who depend on it most
What we're looking for:
* Previous classroom experience as a Teaching Assistant, ideally in a primary setting
* Hands-on experience supporting pupils with autism, ADHD, or SEMH needs
* Understanding of how sensory processing and communication differences show up in the classroom
* Ability to remain calm and consistent when behaviour is challenging
* Strong communication skills and a collaborative, team-focused approach
* Experience with or understanding of behaviour frameworks is a real advantage
* Level 2 or 3 Teaching Assistant qualification, or equivalent, preferred
What's on offer:
* A full-time position starting after Easter
* Long-term placement through Sprint Education
* A school in Leamington Spa with a genuine commitment to inclusion
* Access to ongoing support and CPD through Sprint
Why Sprint?
If you're looking to work as a Year 6 teacher in a mainstream classroom, providing day-to-day supply cover, we're probably not the agency for you. But if you're passionate about supporting students with additional needs and want a long-term role where you can build consistency and see the impact of your work every day, that's exactly what we do.
