An inclusive and forward-thinking SEN school in Enfield is seeking a confident and dedicated Higher Level Teaching Assistant (HLTA) to join their team this September. You don't need to hold an HLTA qualification - but experience supporting children with SEMH or complex needs is essential.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone passionate about creating positive change and helping young people with additional needs thrive in a nurturing, structured environment.

Delivering small group or individual learning activities tailored to pupils with Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs

Supporting teachers in adapting and planning lessons to meet diverse learning and emotional needs

Working alongside the SENCO, pastoral team, and external agencies (e.g. CAMHS, social workers) to provide holistic support

Leading and mentoring Teaching Assistants as needed, sharing best practices and strategies

Taking part in regular CPD, training, and reflective practice focused on therapeutic and trauma-informed education

Promoting a safe, respectful, and inclusive learning culture for all students

What We're Looking For:

Essential:

Strong experience supporting children with SEMH or SEND, ideally in a school or alternative provision

Excellent communication and relationship-building skills

A calm, proactive, and empathetic approach to behaviour and learning support

Comfortable working independently with small groups or individuals

Desirable (but not required):

Experience in a PRU or specialist SEN/SEMH setting

Familiarity with trauma-informed or therapeutic approaches such as Team Teach, Thrive, or PACE

Leadership experience or a desire to develop in that area

Why Join This School?

A warm, supportive leadership team that values your development

Ongoing training in therapeutic and inclusive approaches

A chance to genuinely impact the lives of young learners who need consistent and compassionate support

Clear path to grow into more senior support or intervention roles

If you're ready to step up, support students who need it most, and be part of a team that's making a real difference in Enfield - we want to hear from you.
