At Aspira Education, SEND isn’t a side offering. It’s the heart of what we do.
We specialise in placing skilled, reliable support staff into special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) settings across East Midlands From PRUs and SEMH units to specialist provisions and mainstream schools with high-needs learners, we understand the unique challenges and opportunities in SEND environments, because we’ve worked in them ourselves.
Our team combines lived experience with professional expertise. Our founder experienced the SEND system first-hand as a pupil in a PRU, which is why we recruit differently. We proactively identify people with the right foundations, care, youth work, sports coaching and behaviour support, then upskill and mentor them so they bring presence, consistency and genuine understanding into school settings.
This allows us to offer schools more than just a CV. We deliver professionals who are calm, prepared and able to support pupils with confidence from day one.
Every candidate we place is thoroughly vetted, trained through our in-house Academy, and carefully matched to the role and setting. Whether it’s a behaviour mentor, learning support assistant, or specialist TA, we’re committed to placing people who will make a genuine impact from day one.
We know consistency is vital for SEND learners. That’s why we go the extra mile to ensure long-term suitability, not just short-term cover. With Aspira, you can trust that the person walking into your classroom is equipped, informed, and ready to support the whole child, not just the timetable.
