Teaching Personnel are proud to be working with an excellent primary school in the Maidstone area that are currently recruiting for a teaching assistant to support students with autism in the specialist provision. The role would be to start immediately (depending on when the school reopens) until the end of the academic year or to start in September if schools do not reopen before then.
