Teaching Assistant – Primary School (SEMH / Alternative Provision)

Leeds | Full-Time | Long-Term

Are you confident supporting young people with challenging behaviour? We’re recruiting Teaching Assistants to work with primary-aged students in SEMH and alternative provision settings across Leeds.

Leader Education is partnering with specialist schools and alternative provisions to find resilient, consistent mentors who can build strong relationships and help pupils re-engage with education.

 

The Role

This is a full-time position (Monday–Friday) supporting pupils who require consistent behavioural and emotional support to succeed in school.

You will:

  • Provide 1:1 and small group behaviour mentoring

  • Support de-escalation and emotional regulation

  • Build strong, professional relationships with pupils

  • Implement behaviour plans and EHCP strategies

  • Help students re-engage with learning

  • Work closely with teachers and pastoral teams

Pupils may present with SEMH needs, Autism (ASC), ADHD, attachment needs, or trauma-related behaviours.

 

Ideal Candidate

This role would suit someone who is:

  • Calm, firm, and emotionally resilient

  • Confident managing challenging behaviour

  • Passionate about supporting vulnerable children and young people

  • Consistent and reliable

  • Available for full-time work

Strong backgrounds include:

  • Behaviour mentor

  • Youth work

  • Care or residential support

  • Sports coaching

  • Psychology graduates

  • Alternative provision

  • Security or intervention work with young people

School experience is helpful but not essential — resilience and attitude are key.

  • Weekly pay via compliant umbrella payroll

  • Free Team Teach and behaviour training

  • Dedicated consultant support

  • Long-term and temp-to-perm opportunities

  • Full AWR compliance
