Learning Support Assistants (LSA) Bristol


Elementa are currently recruiting for a number of Learning Support Assistant positions in the Bristol area. These roles are on a permanent or contract basis, Elementa do not deal in short term or supply work.

As a LSA you will mostly be working alongside the class teacher to provide support to the children and in many cases on a 1:1 basis. The needs of the children can vary, and in some cases the children may have complex learning difficulties.

The ideal candidate would have experience in a similar role, or experience working with children in a similar setting. Applicants with Team Teach training or other positive behaviour management training may be at an advantage however free training will be provided should the role require it.

The role of an LSA can be a challenging one so patience, a friendly approach and a good sense of humour are required. A long with the skills to help the children learn and develop to the best of their abilities.

Elementa offer fair rates of pay, including paid holiday and free training.

Ideally, applicants should have good previous SEND experience and knowledge, particularly in SEMH and ASD/ASC, and how to adapt the education approach to ensure that high-quality learning still takes place despite not being a permanent team member. You would still be very much treated as a valuable part of the team.

To be considered for supply opportunities, you must:

  • have good previous SEND experience
  • be flexible & communicative regarding your availability
  • be available at short notice
  • be committed to the schools' policies & procedures
  • enjoy supply teaching and the rewards & challenges it can bring

Elementa will be managing all applicants and screening their suitability as supply staff to the school. Elementa are not a supply agency, we are a school services & recruiting partner to schools. We will manage the candidate vetting & compliance and process your payroll on behalf of the school. Organising supply opportunities at the school would be done in direct communication with the relevant school colleague organising the supply cover. Therefore applicants being considered for the role after pre-screening will be required to complete the registration process for Elementa. This includes full vetting & background checks and application for an Enhanced DBS Disclosure unless you have a current DBS on the update service.

If you have the relevant skills and experience necessary for this role then please apply with your full up to date CV. All applicants will be promptly responded to.

ELEMENTA CANDIDATE COMMITMENT:

  • Weekly pay – no waiting for monthly payroll cut off dates, Elementa pays one week in lieu.
