Job Title: PMLD Teaching Assistant (Complex Needs)
Location: Worksop
Pay: £90 - £120 per day (inclusive of holiday pay)
Start Date: ASAP

Are you a patient and intuitive practitioner dedicated to championing the rights of learners with profound and multiple learning difficulties? A forward-thinking primary provision in South Yorkshire is looking for a specialist Teaching Assistant to join their team on an immediate basis.

Why Make a Move?

A Holistic Approach: This isn't just about classroom support; it's about attending to the whole child. You will support with personal care, postural management, and follow individual care plans to ensure pupils' dignity and comfort throughout the school day.

Consistent Routine: Enjoy the reliability of a full-time temporary contract (Monday to Friday, 8:30 am - 3:30 pm) within a single, supportive environment where you can build deep connections.

Sharpen Your Toolkit: We provide free access to CPD that matters in this field, including courses on Makaton/PECS, Moving and Handling, Intensive Interaction, and supporting learners with ASD and complex healthcare needs.

Refer & Reward: Know someone looking for similar work? Receive a £75 Love2Shop voucher when you refer a friend.

Who We're Looking For:

Specialist Experience: You must have a background in care or education, specifically working with individuals with PMLD, complex physical disabilities, or profound autism. Experience with tube feeding, hoisting, or epilepsy management is highly valued.

Understanding of Sensory Needs: You should be confident in using a range of communication methods (e.g., Objects of Reference, symbols, eye-gaze) and sensory strategies to engage learners.

Calm & Nurturing Nature: We need someone with a gentle resilience-an individual who celebrates the smallest victories and remains calm and attentive in a dynamic environment.

Qualifications Count: A Level 2 or 3 qualification in Health and Social Care or Supporting Teaching and Learning is advantageous, but your hands-on experience and genuine empathy are what truly set you apart.

Safeguarding First: You must hold an Enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or be prepared to apply for one immediately).

If you believe that every child deserves a champion and you have the specialist skills to support PMLD learners, we want to hear from you.
