Wandsworth Sensory Support Service is a provider of education for deaf children and young people.  This is an exciting opportunity to join our highly motivated and skilled team as a Teaching Assistant.

Based in Sellincourt Primary School and only a short walk from Tooting Broadway tube station, the Willow Hearing Support Centre caters for deaf children from Early Years to the end of Key Stage 2.
