We are looking for a Teaching Assistant to join our new team at Bushbury School, Wolverhampton.

Do you want to create and build bright futures for young lives?

Bright Futures, Inspired By You.

Bushbury School is an independent specialist day school providing high-quality education for boys and girls. Based in Wolverhampton, the school meets the diverse needs of pupils aged 7-19 with Autism and Speech, Language, and Communication Needs (SLCN).

There's nothing more rewarding than helping someone believe in themselves, have the confidence to celebrate their own uniqueness and achieve success that is personal to them.

Desirable but not essential to have experience with Autism Spectrum Condition, ASC or previous experience of working with students with ASC?

The role involves:

• Assisting students in their educational and social development.
• Provide support inside and outside of the classroom, so they can fully engage in a wide range of activities.
• Help to set up activities for students, using technology or adjusting the environment to suit their needs.
• Support teachers, engaging with students, providing learning support, and reacting to situations in the classroom in a positive, non-disruptive manner.
• Working 1:1 with some students, to give them the time and support they need to learn.

If you are passionate about making a difference to the lives of young people and enabling them to shape their own future, then we want you to be part of our team.

• Real Living Wage employer
• Competitive pay rates
