Long Term Futures are working closely with a welcoming and well-established primary school in Harrow, who are seeking a committed SEN Teaching Assistant to support a child in Year 2 with significant learning and communication needs. This full-time position is available from September 2025 and will continue for the full academic year.

Although the child is in Year 2, their current learning level is considerably below age-related expectations, and they will be working on a reduced timetable to help regulate and access the curriculum more effectively.

• Delivering small group instruction and adjusting lesson materials to the pupil's level
• Encouraging emotional regulation and managing classroom transitions
• Supporting speech, language and communication needs
• Collaborating with class teachers, outside agencies, and the child's family
• Contributing to progress monitoring and regular reporting

Who We're Looking For:

• Experience supporting children with ASD, communication needs, or developmental delay
• Comfortable supporting children below age-expected levels
• Strong spoken and written English
• Ability to build consistent routines and promote independence
• Psychology or education graduates encouraged to apply

Why Work with Long Term Futures?

• Long-term, stable opportunities in supportive schools
• Weekly pay and dedicated consultant support
• Routes into teaching, therapy, or educational psychology careers
• Access to tailored CPD and SEN training opportunities
