Level 3 Teaching Assistant - with Team Teach job summary

The role in a nutshell

The Pupil Wellbeing Practitioner plays a key role in supporting pupils’ social, emotional and behavioural development, helping to create a safe, inclusive and positive learning environment where all children can thrive. Working with pupils who present with complex needs, the postholder will use therapeutic, restorative and positive behaviour support approaches to help pupils regulate emotions, develop resilience and successfully engage in learning.

The Pupil Wellbeing Practitioner will work collaboratively with teaching staff, wellbeing teams and wider professionals to remove barriers to learning, promote pupil wellbeing and contribute to improved educational outcomes. Through targeted interventions, individual support and proactive behaviour strategies, the role will have a direct impact on pupils’ personal development, wellbeing and achievement.

Key Responsibilities:

• Support the Pupil Wellbeing Lead in delivering the Academy’s wellbeing and pastoral support strategy.

• Work alongside class teachers to support teaching and learning, ensuring pupils are able to access the curriculum effectively.

• Deliver planned learning activities and lessons under the direction and guidance of teaching staff.

• Lead targeted intervention programmes and small-group sessions to address identified social, emotional, behavioural or learning needs.

• Provide one-to-one support for individual pupils, helping them overcome barriers to learning and achieve their personalised outcomes.

• Develop, implement and review positive behaviour support strategies for individual pupils and groups.

• Use therapeutic and de-escalation approaches to support pupils in managing emotions and behaviours effectively.

• Build positive, trusting relationships with pupils, families and colleagues to promote engagement and wellbeing.

• Monitor, record and report on pupil progress, behaviour and wellbeing, contributing to planning and review processes.

Additional Responsibilities:

As part of this role, the Pupil Wellbeing Practitioner will also be a member of the Trust’s Team Teach Training Team. The postholder will support the planning and delivery of Team Teach training across the Trust, helping to ensure colleagues are equipped with effective strategies to build positive relationships, manage behaviour safely and promote a culture of inclusion and wellbeing.

This role offers variety and the opportunity to face something new each day. You may encounter different topics and challenges, but the rewards are significant. Supporting pupils to reach their potential, grow in confidence, and achieve their goals brings immense satisfaction.
