Summary
What skills and experience we're looking for
We are looking for enthusiastic,
innovative and inspiring practitioners to enhance our hardworking, professional
team as a Higher-Level Teaching Assistant (HLTA), working within our Federation.
Due to staff who are currently in these roles moving on to undertake Initial

experience before undertaking a future pathway in the education sector and
candidates who have experience of working in similar roles previously.

we can offer:
• A
friendly, progressive and diverse school community;
• A
modern learning environment that is constantly evolving;
• A
learning environment where ‘pupils’ conduct is exemplary’ and ‘pupils show

2019) and ‘Pupils behave well in lessons and around the school. Pupils enjoy their learning…low level
disruption is rare. ‘All Saints OFSTED November 2022)
• Opportunities
to earn flexible days off based on 100% attendance – further improving the
work/life balance of our staff;
• An
earlier end to the school day every Friday, planned with staff well-being
in mind;
• A
supportive and forward-thinking leadership team;
• A collaborative working relationship with staff
across the federation;
• A commitment to professional development for all
staff.
Further details about the role
The successful candidate will need
to:
• Have
high expectations and the commitment to secure the best outcomes for
children;
• Have
the ability to lead and plan a lesson – further training can be given if
experience is limited;
• Have
excellent communication and team working skills;
• Work
flexibly under the direction of the Headteacher.
