  • Adapting to different classrooms, staff teams and pupil needs.

What we're looking for:

  • Previous experience working in education, ideally within SEN or specialist settings.

  • Confidence managing a classroom and supporting pupils with additional needs.

  • A flexible, proactive and reliable approach.

  • Someone happy to take on both cover and TA responsibilities depending on the school's needs.

Why work with Tradewind?

  • Flexible, ad-hoc working to suit your availability.
