Learning Support AssistantUnlock Your Potential: Learning Support Assistant (LSA) at an OUTSTANDING Southwark School!

Ready to elevate your career and make a genuine difference? I'm thrilled to present an unmissable opportunity for a talented Learning Support Assistant (LSA) to join an OUTSTANDING community special school in Southwark. This isn't just a job; it's a chance to be part of something truly special in Southwark, starting September 2025 on a full-time, fixed-term basis, with fantastic potential for a permanent Learning Support Assistant role!

This exceptional school in Southwark caters to children aged 2-11 with severe and complex needs, including autism. Imagine working in a brand-new, state-of-the-art building boasting brilliant facilities and extensive landscaped grounds. Here in Southwark, a child-centred, play-based curriculum drives motivating and fun learning experiences every single day.

As a Learning Support Assistant, you'll be key to pupil success, providing vital one-to-one and group support, nurturing their well-being and learning. Your days as a Learning Support Assistant will be flexible, assisting educators with planning, managing resources, and supervising activities like play times and lunch. Crucially, as a Learning Support Assistant, you'll also be involved in personal care, supporting independence skills (mobility, toileting), and even administering health-care procedures after expert training. Your excellent communication and emotional resilience in managing behaviour will be highly valued by this Southwark school.

Why This Learning Support Assistant Role Stands Out:

• Competitive Pay: With opportunities for pay increases linked to key markers
• Direct Impact: Witness firsthand the incredible progress you facilitate in pupils' lives and IEPs.
• Collaborative Powerhouse: Work hand-in-hand with dedicated educators, therapists, and parents in Southwark.
• Growth & Development: As a Learning Support Assistant, you'll contribute to curriculum activities, enhance ICT skills with pupils, and support exciting school trips.
• Exceptional Support: Join a friendly, cohesive team committed to your growth, with comprehensive induction and ongoing training for every Learning Support Assistant.
• Secure Environment: Uphold the highest standards of safeguarding and health & safety within a truly positive school ethos.
