PMLD Teaching Assistant - Riverside School, Bromley
Engage Education is currently working in partnership with a SEND School in Bromley, to recruit a compassionate and proactive Teaching Assistant to join their team immediately.
This is a fantastic opportunity to support children and young people with a wide range of complex learning needs across Riverside's specialist provisions. The school supports pupils with:
- Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC)
- Severe and profound learning difficulties (SLD/PMLD)
- Communication and interaction needs
- Sensory, physical and medical needs

- Supporting pupils with autism (verbal and non-verbal)
- Behaviour mentoring or therapeutic support
- Personal care and sensory-based learning
- Theatre in Education (TIE), creative workshops or youth work
