Graduate Learning Support Assistant - Primary School - Bradford

Are you a recent graduate in Psychology (or a related field) looking to make a difference in the lives of primary-aged children?
Do you want to gain meaningful experience supporting students with Special Educational Needs (SEN)?
Would you love to work in a supportive and inclusive environment, helping children overcome challenges and reach their full potential?

A dynamic and welcoming primary school in Bradford is seeking a compassionate Graduate Learning Support Assistant to join their team. This is a fantastic opportunity for anyone wanting to build a career in education, particularly in SEN support, while learning from experienced professionals in a nurturing school setting.

About the Graduate Learning Support Assistant Role:

• Full-time, long-term position through to the end of the academic year and potentially beyond
• Salary of up to £520 per week, based on experience
• Located in central Bradford, easily accessible by public transport
• Ideal for those aspiring to become SEN teachers, educational psychologists, or speech and language therapists
• Work directly with children in 1-2-1 and small group settings, supporting their academic and personal development
• Collaborate with specialist professionals, including educational psychologists and speech & language therapists, to develop student case studies
• Sociable working hours from 8am to 4pm, Monday to Friday

What We’re Looking for in You: The perfect candidate for this role will:

• Hold a 2:1 or First-Class degree in Psychology (or a closely related subject) from a respected university
• Have a genuine passion for working with children, especially those with SEN
• Demonstrate a patient, empathetic, and proactive approach to supporting students
• Possess strong emotional intelligence and be able to respond to a range of situations and personalities in the classroom
