Are you committed to inspiring and motivating students?
Enthusiastic and optimistic in wanting the very best for each student?

We are seeking applications from dedicated and hardworking professionals with a desire to work in a successful, thriving, and supportive academy making a positive contribution to our pastoral team.


This is an exciting opportunity to make a significant difference to a wide range of learners. You must be a positive and passionate individual with a commitment to delivering outstanding support to young people.

We wish to appoint a highly motivated, outstanding Teaching Assistant to provide high quality SEND provision. You will work with teaching staff to develop teaching resources to support the learning of students and you will raise the aspiration of students through coaching and mentoring.

This role would suit someone who is compassionate and caring and is committed to making a positive change to young people's lives. This role involves working across a variety of different classes, so you need to be able to easily adapt and work with children of different levels/ needs and be able to provide 121 supervision and personal care for someone with a physical disability.


You should have a flexible approach, be able to build a rapport with staff and students and be able to work under pressure. To be successful in this role you should hold a teaching assistant qualification or relevant degree and have experience of working within a classroom setting.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone to shape and develop their career in a highly experienced and supportive environment.

Candidates whose personal qualities and values reflect those in the person specification, and whose experiences also place them in a strong position to deliver the challenges set out in the job description.

Taken from our recent Ofsted Inspection in November 2022: 'Aspire, Believe, Achieve' is at the heart of Harborne Academy. Aspirational words and images surround pupils in corridors and classrooms. Pupils welcome these. Pupils and staff share positive and respectful relationships. Pupils value the support staff give them. This motivates pupils to achieve well, and they do. Pupils are happy and safe at school.
