  • A genuine passion for supporting children’s learning and development

    
    

  • Must hold or be willing to apply for an Enhanced DBS check

    • Make a meaningful difference in children’s education

      
      

    • Work flexibly across schools that suit your style and goals

      
      

    • Build strong relationships in supportive school communities
