Overview of Teaching Assistant opportunities

Teaching Assistants (TAs) support teachers with learning activities, small‑group intervention and 1:1 support, including pupils with SEND. You’ll find opportunities across mainstream and SEN schools, academies, multi‑academy trusts, PRUs and alternative provision. Demand for skilled TAs continues to grow due to targeted catch‑up programmes, expanding SEND provision and short‑notice cover needs. On jobwise, you can explore the breadth of TA roles and rely on our AI‑driven matching to highlight posts that align with your phase experience, subject strengths and safeguarding credentials.

What to expect from Temporary work

Temporary contracts range from day‑to‑day supply to short fixed‑term assignments covering staff absence or funded interventions. They offer maximum flexibility—choose your availability, accept last‑minute bookings and build experience across different schools and key stages. Pay is typically weekly via timesheets, with clear daily or hourly rates. While temporary work may not include the same benefits as permanent roles, it can be a fast route to long‑term placements or permanent offers once you’ve proven your impact.

On jobwise, you can filter for “Temporary” contracts, set travel radius, key stage, SEN focus and start date, then save searches. Our platform scores each role against your CV so you see high‑match vacancies first.

Pay, working hours and long-term career growth

Typical temporary TA pay in the UK ranges around £75–£110 per day (roughly £11–£15 per hour), with higher rates in London and for specialist SEND experience. Hours are usually school day (e.g., 8:15–3:45) with optional breakfast or after‑school club work. Short‑notice bookings are common during sickness seasons, while longer stints arise for parental leave and funded interventions.

Career ladders include moving from General Classroom TA to Specialist SEN TA, HLTA or Cover Supervisor, then into pastoral roles, Behaviour Lead or training for QTS via school‑based routes. jobwise data helps you compare rates by area and surface roles from high‑paying schools and trusts.

Key skills and requirements

  • Classroom support: behaviour management, differentiation, small‑group and 1:1 intervention.
  • Curriculum support: phonics (EYFS/KS1), literacy and numeracy boosters, exam support.
  • SEND expertise: Autism, ADHD, SEMH; de‑escalation and inclusive strategies.
  • Safeguarding and communication: working with teachers, parents and external agencies.
  • Digital skills: familiarity with Google Classroom/Microsoft 365 and basic MIS usage.
  • Useful certifications: Level 2/3 TA or Supporting Teaching & Learning, HLTA, Paediatric First Aid, Team Teach/positive handling, Safeguarding & Prevent.
  • Compliance: Enhanced DBS (ideally on the Update Service), Right to Work and recent references.
  • Transferable strengths: empathy, patience, resilience, organisation and adaptability—jobwise’s AI can surface these from your CV to improve matches.
