Description

Are you calm under pressure, patient, and motivated by making a real difference?

TeachWell is working with a supportive school to recruit a Behaviour Teaching Assistant to support pupils who need help managing their emotions, behaviour, and engagement with learning.

This role is ideal for someone with experience supporting children or young people with SEMH or behavioural needs, or someone looking to build a long-term career in education.

The role

As a Behaviour Teaching Assistant, you will:

  • Support pupils with SEMH and behavioural needs on a 1:1 and small-group basis
  • Help pupils regulate behaviour and re-engage with learning
  • Work closely with teachers, SENCOs, and pastoral staff
  • Use clear boundaries, consistency, and positive behaviour strategies
  • Be a calm, trusted adult in moments that matter most

We’re looking for someone who:

  • Is resilient, patient, and consistent
  • Has experience working with children or young people
  • Can build strong relationships and remain calm in challenging situations
  • Is passionate about helping pupils succeed both academically and emotionally

School-based experience is helpful but not essential — the right attitude matters more.

Benefits

What you’ll get

  • Competitive daily pay (paid weekly)
  • Ongoing support from TeachWell — you’re never on your own
  • Access to free CPD and behaviour-focused training
  • A chance to make a genuine difference every day
  • Opportunity to progress into SEN, pastoral, or teacher training roles
