Are you looking for a role where you can make a difference to the lives of our young people?
We are seeking to appoint two enthusiastic and committed Teaching Assistants to join our large and supportive team. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the learning and development of our students by working closely with classroom teachers to support educational opportunities across the school.
The successful candidate will:
Demonstrate strong communication skills to support students’ independent learning.
Offer encouragement and clear explanations to help young people reach their potential.
Support small group interventions:
Literacy: Implementing phonics catch-up, reading fluency, and structured writing frameworks.
Numeracy: De-mystifying maths by building "number sense" and foundational problem-solving skills.
Social & Emotional Skills: Facilitating sessions that promote confidence, social communication, and resilience.
The role could include providing personal care for the student. Please indicate in your application if this is something you would be happy to do. Full training would be provided.
£17,308 actual salary based on a 5-day working week ( 5.5 hours per day, 8:30am-3:00pm, including two 30-minute breaks).
We would prefer candidates able to work 5 days per week; however, 4 days may be considered for the right candidate. Salary will be calculated pro-rata for fewer than 5 days.
We offer a competitive salary, access to a contributory local government pension scheme and other staff benefits. Colleagues benefit from a commitment to staff well-being and are provided with several schemes to support them maintain an active and healthy lifestyle. We have a priority admission policy for children of staff working at the school.
Applications will be reviewed as they are received and interviews arranged accordingly. The post will be withdrawn once a suitable applicant is appointed.
