Kite TLS are urgently looking for an LSA to join our team in London, SW19 5JS.

We are looking for a warm and engaging LSA for 5 hours per week (Tuesday 10h00 to 15h00) to develop a consistent, long-term relationship with a young adult.

This role is all about building a trusting relationship and supporting him to develop his independence in ways that are meaningful to him. Sessions are largely community-based and could include visiting local cafés, shops, crazy golf, trying new activities, or simply spending time together on outings that encourage confidence, communication and decision-making.
You'll support him to continue developing important life skills such as shopping independently, ordering and paying for food, exploring new places and gently encouraging him to step outside his comfort zone while always working at his pace. Some sessions may involve helping him reflect on situations, manage social boundaries and build emotional awareness.

The ideal person will be calm, adaptable and happy to follow the interests of the young person while recognising opportunities to encourage growth and independence. A good sense of humour, plenty of patience and a willingness to think creatively are far more important than a traditional classroom approach.

This is a hugely rewarding opportunity to make a genuine difference in a young person's life while becoming part of a supportive and experienced team at Kite TLS.

If that sounds like you, we would really love to hear from you.

Rate of pay is £27 per hour for LSAs. We also currently pay mileage at 0.45p per mile.

Those of you who are interested in joining our already established bank of self-employed, sessional associates, should complete the "Work With Us" tab on our website www.kitetls.co.uk, mention that you are enquiring about the SW19 5JS area on Facebook, and our recruitment team will email you back with an information pack.

⭐ You will need to be enthusiastic about hearing about gaming lore, make belief play, and be comfortable with letting the child lead. Flexibility, humour, and the ability to adapt to changing interests and energy levels, are essential.

⭐ An interest in outdoor adventures, board games, gaming lore and love of dogs would be a bonus. Expect sessions to include everything from gaming, scripting and digital art, to playing board games, getting out and about, and playful shenanigans.

⭐ This role is ideal for someone genuinely curious, collaborative and relationship-driven. PDA experience is a must as well as a neuro-affirming / PDA friendly approach. What matters most is your ability to genuinely connect, follow the child’s lead, and support steady growth over time.

⭐ This role offers a rewarding opportunity to become part of a neurodivergent child's learning journey and provision.

⭐ You will become part of a team supporting, what is best described as, a programme of self-directed education. The provision is supported by an Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP), and so will also be reviewed through this process.

⭐ We are looking for someone warm, engaging and thoughtful, who genuinely enjoys supporting children in ways that feel personal and meaningful to them.

⭐ Do you see learning as something that grows naturally from safe, trusting relationships? From connection, curiosity, play and developmentally attuned experiences? Are you motivated by nurturing each child’s individuality, rather than relying on rewards, punishments or compliance-based systems?

If that sounds like you, we would really love to hear from you.
Rate of pay is £27 per hour for LSAs. We also currently pay mileage at 0.45p per mile.

He has a good sense of rhythm and pitch, enjoys swimming and being in the water, and has a real love of animals, especially dogs, rabbits and cats.

🌻The ideal candidate will be a dynamic, fun and insightful tutor who specialises in supporting truly individual learning pathways. Do you believe that learning is a natural process arising from trusting relationships, curiosity, playfulness and emotionally safe experiences? Are you passionate about working away from systems of reward and punishment, committed to supporting individuality rather than conformity? If so, we would love to hear from you.
