KTS Group is looking for a dedicated and compassionate Special Educational Needs (SEN) Teaching Assistant to join a specialist education setting in Royston on a full-time, permanent basis.

This is a rewarding opportunity to make a genuine difference in the lives of young people with additional needs including PMLD, autism, and complex medical conditions.

Key Responsibilities:

• Support students’ learning, development, and progress across a range of contexts – including the classroom, the local environment, and the wider community.

• Work closely with young people with a variety of needs, including profound and multiple learning difficulties (PMLD), complex medical needs, and autism.

• Promote equality, diversity, and inclusion, ensuring all students are treated with dignity and respect.

• Provide high-quality, person-centred support, helping students achieve their educational and personal goals.

• Contribute to a positive, empowering environment and actively participate in all aspects of student care, including personal care and physical intervention when required.

• Continuously develop your knowledge of SEN and align with the values of the setting.

What We’re Looking For:

• Minimum 1 year of experience as a Teaching Assistant in a UK school (preferably SEN).

• Educated to at least Level 2 (or equivalent) in Maths and English.

• Passionate about working with children and young people with additional needs.

• A proactive, compassionate, and creative individual who sees potential, not disability.

• Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively both in a team and independently.

• Enthusiastic about outdoor learning and community engagement.

• Committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of students.

• Proof of right to work in the UK is required – we are unable to offer sponsorship for this role.
