Autism Support Workers - Birmingham

 Experience working with Special Needs Children? 

ABC Teachers are currently looking for a friendly, fun and enthusiastic individual who has experience working with SEN Children either as part of small groups or on a one to one basis. 

We are currently working with a large school in the heart of Birmingham, who require support for some of their most vulnerable children.

The successful candidate will need to be able to support pupils that may have challenging behaviour or specific learning difficulties. With support from other members of staff, activities will be set by the teacher, and you will support pupils with their progress and enhance their learning.  

Experience supporting some of the following could be advantageous: 

ADHD 

Autism (ASD) 

Behavioural, Emotional and Social Difficulties (BESD, formerly EBD) 

Challenging Behaviour

Moderate Learning Difficulties (MLD)

Severe Learning Difficulties (SLD) 

Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties (PMLD) 

Don’t worry if you have not gained a Teaching Assistant Qualification or have not had the experience within a school based setting, you can work as a Learning Support Assistant and still become a valued member of the team! 

What to do next:

• To be considered for this position you will be required to attend a face to face registration and hold an enhanced DBS check in Child and Adult Workforce; you will need to pay for this upfront and add this to the Update Service.  At the registration we will discuss in more detail the work that you are looking for, your experience to date, and also how we are going to work best for you. 

• We will need to gain references to cover the last 2 years, and a minimum of 2 references must be a school based. Our compliance team have a rigorous safeguarding and clearance process and this is how we know we are working with the best possible team of staff to employ in our schools.
