Job Title: PMLD Primary Teaching Assistant
Location: Doncaster
Contract: School Terms Only (Monday to Friday)
Daily Rate: £92.56 - £110 (includes holiday pay, dependent on experience)
Step Into a Role Where Every Small Gesture Creates Ripples
Do you understand that communication isn't always verbal, and progress isn't always measured in grades? Academics Agency is looking for a thoughtful and physically resilient PMLD Teaching Assistant to join a specialist primary team.
What You'll Gain:
*
Rewarding Daily Rate: £92.56 - £110 per day, reflecting the specialist care, manual handling knowledge, and emotional steadiness you bring.
*
Term-Time Only Schedule: Work during school terms only, giving you extended breaks to recharge, attend appointments, or spend time with family.
*
Free Specialist Training: Access complimentary CPD workshops, including certified moving and handling, epilepsy awareness, and safeguarding.
*
Refer & Receive: Recommend another professional who joins our team and earn a £75 Love2Shop voucher through our referral scheme.
Who You Are:
You are calm, observant, and deeply attentive to non-verbal cues. The ideal candidate will have:
*
Hands-on experience supporting individuals with profound and multiple learning difficulties (in schools, residential care, respite settings, or similar environments).
*
A gentle yet confident approach to personal care, hoisting, postural management, and using assistive communication tools (PECS, eye gaze, switches).
*
A genuine understanding that small responses-a blink, a smile, a changed breathing pattern-are powerful milestones.
*
An active Enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or willingness to apply for one).
*
Two relevant professional references confirming your patience, reliability, and safeguarding awareness.
