Behaviour Mentor & SEN Teaching Assistant

Location: Brent, North West London
Pay: £110 – £125 per day, depending on experience
Start Date: ASAP
Contract: Full-Time | Long-Term

About the Role

Long Term Futures are working with an inclusive primary school in Brent to recruit a confident and experienced Behaviour Mentor and SEN Teaching Assistant to support pupils across Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2.

This is a varied role supporting children with Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, social, emotional and mental health needs, and challenging behaviour. The successful candidate will provide a combination of 1:1 support, small group interventions and classroom assistance, helping pupils develop emotional regulation, positive behaviour and engagement with learning.

The school is looking for someone who is resilient, proactive and able to build strong relationships with pupils while maintaining clear boundaries and consistent expectations.

Key responsibilities include:

• Providing 1:1 and small group behaviour and SEN support across KS1 and KS2
• Supporting pupils with autism, ADHD, SEMH and additional learning needs
• Implementing positive behaviour management and de-escalation strategies
• Helping pupils develop emotional regulation and social communication skills
• Delivering targeted academic and behavioural interventions
• Supporting pupils during lessons, transitions, breaktimes and other unstructured periods
• Building positive relationships with pupils who may struggle to engage with learning
• Working closely with teachers, the SENCO and pastoral team to implement individual support plans

The Ideal Candidate

The school is looking for someone who:

• Has previous experience supporting children with challenging behaviour or SEN
• Is confident working across both Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2
• Can remain calm, patient and consistent when managing challenging situations
• Understands the importance of structure, routine and clear boundaries
• Is proactive, adaptable and able to respond to different behavioural needs
• Can build trusting relationships while maintaining high expectations
• Has strong communication and teamwork skills

Experience in behaviour mentoring, SEMH settings, youth work, sports coaching or specialist SEN provision would be particularly beneficial.

Team Teach or similar positive behaviour management training would be desirable but is not essential.

What’s on Offer

• £110 – £125 per day, depending on experience
• ASAP start
• Full-time, long-term position
• Opportunity to support pupils across KS1 and KS2
• Supportive teaching and SEND team
• Ongoing SEN and behaviour management training
• Potential for a permanent opportunity
