The Role

For a full description, please see the job description attached.

We are seeking a committed and enthusiastic HLTA to join our team. The successful candidate will plan, prepare, deliver, assess, report, and mark learning activities for individuals, groups, or whole classes under an agreed system of supervision.

What We Are Looking For

We are looking for an individual who:

  • Can work collaboratively as part of a team
  • Is committed to supporting children with a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
  • Has energy, patience, and strong nurturing skills
  • Demonstrates clear communication and excellent organisational abilities

This is a highly rewarding role that is not often advertised. The successful applicant must be dedicated and consistent in their approach, helping our children make great progress both socially and academically.

Our ASD resource base supports 14 children, split into two classes:

  • One class led by a Lead Teacher, working with 7–8 children
  • The other class supported by this HLTA vacancy, also working with 7–8 children

Children within the resource base also access mainstream classes, so you will be working as part of a wider team across the school. Supporting you in this role will be two Teaching Assistants (TAs), forming part of an amazing and collaborative team.
