Not all education roles feel the same.
SEND and SEMH schools across East Sussex are looking for people who can bring consistency, patience and a steady presence into the classroom — and for the right person, it can be some of the most rewarding work available in education.
These settings support pupils who may find mainstream school difficult and need structure, trust and strong relationships to engage.
Opportunities include:
- SEND and SEMH teaching roles
- Teaching Assistant and Learning Support Assistant positions
- 1:1 and small group support
- Behaviour and engagement-focused roles
- Short-term, long-term and ongoing placements
Across both primary and secondary settings.
They’re not looking for perfect CVs.
They’re looking for people who:
- Stay calm when things don’t go to plan
- Can bring structure without escalation
- Build trust over time
- Don’t take behaviour personally
- Actually want to be in this type of setting
Experience helps — but mindset matters more.
- Roles across East Sussex
- Immediate and upcoming opportunities
- Teaching roles paid to scale
- TA / LSA roles paid at £92.60 per day
- A child-only enhanced DBS on the Update Service is required
