Contract/Project
SEN TA
Recruiter: GAC Education
Location: Wakefield, West Yorkshire
Pay Rate: £85.00 – £105.00 per day (paid weekly)
Job Type: Full-Time, Term-Time Only (Immediate and future start dates available)
Do you want a role where you can see the direct impact of your support every single day? GAC Education is expanding its West Yorkshire team and is actively recruiting a compassionate, dedicated SEN TA / Behaviour Support Worker to support schools throughout Wakefield.
The Opportunity
Every child deserves an advocate in the classroom. In this role as an SEN TA / Behaviour Support Worker, you will step away from general classroom management to focus on pupils who need specialized, tailored assistance to access their education.
We work with a wide array of fantastic primary and secondary schools in the Wakefield district. Working closely with the school's SENCO (Special Educational Needs Coordinator), the successful SEN TA / Behaviour Support Worker will provide 1-to-1 mentorship, adapt learning resources for neurodiverse pupils (including those with Autism, ADHD, and speech and language difficulties), and track daily progress. Your presence as a SEN TA / Behaviour Support Worker will provide the stability and structure these vulnerable learners need to build confidence and reach their full potential.
What We’re Looking For
*
Experience: Prior experience supporting children or young adults with additional needs (gained in education, care, community youth projects, or personal settings).
*
Approach: A nurturing, patient nature combined with the ability to set clear boundaries and remain calm under pressure.
*
Knowledge: Familiarity with visual timetables, sensory breaks, or alternative communication methods (e.g., PECS) is highly beneficial.
*
Compliance: An enhanced DBS check registered on the Update Service (or a willingness to complete a new application with us).
Why Join GAC Education in Wakefield?
We ensure our specialist support staff feel valued, protected, and properly rewarded for their hard work.
What We Offer
Competitive Daily Rates: Earn £85.00 – £115.00 per day, depending on your experience and the specific setting.
Work-Life Balance: Standard school hours (Monday to Friday, approx. 8:30am – 3:30pm) with no weekend work.
Professional Growth: Regular, free CPD opportunities including Safeguarding, Autism Awareness, and De-escalation training.
Local Support: A dedicated consultant specializing in West Yorkshire schools to guide you through every placement
