SEND Support Jobs

Have you got what it takes to work in SEND?

Having experience working with a variety of special needs and disabilities is great, but having the right attitude is just as important and we look for people with a positive energy, patience and flexibility. If you are new to working in SEND, we will help you develop your skills and experience through a combination of work placements and free training, giving you access to some of the most rewarding and enjoyable jobs in education.

We offer CPD training courses to both experienced workers and people at the start of their SEND careers to equip you for specific roles with specific groups of pupils, often working in conjunction with schools themselves to deliver tailored programmes that lead to jobs.

Who we work with

There are a huge variety of special needs schools and units in the UK. Typically we work with a range of the following:

PRUs and Alternative Provision
PMLD Schools
SLD Schools
ASD schools and Units
SEMH Schools
Complex Needs Schools
Visual and Hearing Impaired Schools and Units

Skills, Experience and Training

Protocol Education can help you gain experience by finding you suitable appointments within schools which will help you develop your skills and increase your knowledge and confidence.

Added to this we can provide you with a range of training options including certificated Team Teach training delivered by our in-house trainers.
