About the Role
We are seeking a compassionate and dedicated Learning Support Assistant (LSA) to join our supportive and dynamic team at a well-established SEMH (Social, Emotional, and Mental Health) school in Southend. This is an exciting opportunity to work with students aged 7-16 who have a range of social, emotional, and mental health needs. You will play a vital role in providing tailored support, fostering a positive learning environment, and helping students to achieve their full potential.

Key Responsibilities

  • Provide 1:1 and small group support for students with SEMH needs, both in and outside the classroom.
  • Assist in the development and implementation of Individual Education Plans (IEPs).
  • Support students in overcoming barriers to learning, using positive behaviour strategies and interventions.
  • Promote the emotional well-being and social development of students.
  • Work closely with teachers, SENCO, and other support staff to create an inclusive and nurturing learning environment.
  • Help students build confidence, self-esteem, and resilience.
  • Observe and record students' progress and behaviours, contributing to regular reports and reviews.

Who We Are Looking For
We are looking for individuals who are passionate about supporting young people with SEMH challenges. You should be patient, resilient, and flexible, with a genuine desire to make a positive impact in students' lives. While experience in an SEMH or SEN setting is desirable, it is not essential. The key qualities we seek include:

  • A strong commitment to supporting vulnerable students.
  • Excellent communication skills, both with students and colleagues.
  • Ability to work effectively as part of a team.
  • Calm and patient demeanour, with the ability to handle challenging situations.
  • A positive attitude and a proactive approach to learning and development.

Qualifications

  • Level 2/3 Teaching Assistant qualification or equivalent (desirable but not essential).
  • Experience working with children or young people in an educational or care setting is beneficial.
  • Team Teach or similar behaviour management training (desirable, but training can be provided).

What We Offer

  • A supportive and welcoming team environment.
  • Ongoing professional development opportunities.
  • Access to training in SEMH, safeguarding, and behaviour management.
  • The opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of students.
