Make a real difference every single day

Are you passionate about supporting children and young people with profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD)? Do you want a role where your patience, empathy, and dedication truly help children thrive and make meaningful progress?

As a SEND Child Support Worker through Axcis Education, you’ll play a vital part in specialist PMLD provisions, providing consistent, compassionate support that helps pupils with complex needs learn, develop, and achieve their individual goals in a nurturing environment.

About the Role

You will work closely with pupils who have severe and profound learning disabilities, offering high-quality, personalised support. Your day-to-day responsibilities will include:

Delivering 1:1 and small group support to help pupils engage with learning activities
Assisting with personal care and daily living skills in a sensitive, respectful, and dignified way
Supporting pupils’ communication, sensory needs, and physical access to the curriculum
Helping to implement individual learning plans and EHCPs
Working collaboratively with teachers and the wider multi-disciplinary team
Creating a positive, safe, and inclusive learning environment where every small step of progress is celebrated

This is a deeply rewarding role for someone who finds genuine fulfilment in supporting children with complex needs.

About the Setting

You will be based in specialist PMLD provisions, part of a well-reputed trust of SEND schools, known for their caring ethos, highly skilled staff teams, and commitment to delivering exceptional education and care for children and young people aged 2–19 with severe and profound learning disabilities. These are supportive environments specifically designed to meet complex needs, with a strong focus on individualised support and pupil wellbeing.

What We’re Looking For

We welcome candidates who are passionate about making a difference in SEND. Relevant experience is valuable, but attitude and potential are equally important. You will ideally have:

Previous experience supporting individuals with SEND (this can come from paid employment, voluntary work, or personal experience)
Patience, warmth, empathy, and a calm, resilient approach
The ability to work flexibly as part of a dedicated team
A strong commitment to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children
Good communication skills and a positive, can-do attitude

Experience with PMLD or personal care is desirable but not essential — full training and ongoing support will be provided.

Why Join Axcis Education?

When you work with Axcis Education, you join the UK’s leading specialist SEN recruitment partner and gain access to exceptional professional development opportunities.
We are strongly committed to your growth and offer excellent CPD opportunities, including free or subsidised access to The National College — one of the leading providers of specialist SEND training in the UK. You can work towards the highly regarded Certificate in the Role of a Learning Support Assistant (CPD verified), along with a wide range of specialist modules covering effective SEND support, communication strategies, sensory needs, behaviour support, and more.

In addition to outstanding training, you’ll also benefit from:

Competitive hourly rates with reliable weekly pay
A dedicated, knowledgeable consultant who supports you every step of the way
Access to a wide variety of rewarding SEND roles across specialist settings
Flexible working patterns to suit your lifestyle (part-time, full-time, or temp-to-perm)
