Job Description

Teaching Assistant - Complex ASC & ADHD Support - Portsmouth

A primary school in Portsmouth is recruiting an experienced Teaching Assistant to provide specialist 1:1 support for a Year 2 pupil with Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC) and ADHD. This Teaching Assistant role is part-time, working five mornings per week from 8:30am to 12:30pm, with a start date of 23rd February 2026.

This is a highly demanding Teaching Assistant role that requires a confident, calm, and resilient practitioner. The child has a short attention span, significant behavioural needs, and can display physically challenging behaviour, meaning this post is not suitable for inexperienced Teaching Assistants.

As a Teaching Assistant, you will deliver learning primarily on a 1:1 basis, following a highly structured and individualised timetable. The role requires someone who can think quickly, adapt tasks in the moment, and maintain consistent routines and boundaries throughout the morning.
