Team Teach Qualified Teaching Assistant

Teaching Assistants – Team Teach Qualified
North Leeds and Surrounding Areas | Competitive Pay Rates

Are you a Teaching Assistant with a current Team Teach qualification? We are looking for enthusiastic and compassionate individuals to join schools and SEN settings across the north of Leeds, including areas such as Alwoodley, Moortown, and Chapel Allerton. This role offers flexibility, allowing you to work around your schedule, while many placements lead to long-term or permanent opportunities.

About the Role
As a Teaching Assistant, you will support pupils with additional needs, including those with Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH) challenges, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), or behavioural difficulties. Your role is vital in creating a safe, structured, and positive learning environment. By using your Team Teach skills, you’ll manage and de-escalate challenging behaviour, ensuring that all pupils feel secure and supported.

Working closely with teachers and staff, you’ll assist with classroom activities, provide one-to-one or small group support, and help pupils overcome barriers to learning. Your ability to build trusting relationships and act as a positive role model will inspire pupils to engage, make progress, and develop confidence.

What We Offer

• Flexible Opportunities: Work that fits around your availability.
• Career Progression: Many roles lead to long-term or permanent positions in local schools.
• Variety of Settings: Experience working in mainstream schools, SEN provisions, and alternative settings.
• Competitive Pay: Rates that reflect your skills and dedication.

What We’re Looking For

• A current Team Teach qualification is essential.
• Experience supporting children or young people with additional needs.
• Resilience, patience, and a genuine passion for helping pupils succeed.
• While access to transport is beneficial, it’s not a requirement.

We are recruiting across north Leeds, including Alwoodley, Moortown, Chapel Allerton, and nearby areas. If you’re eager to make a difference in the lives of young people and grow your career in education, we’d love to hear from you.
