The role
Are you passionate about supporting all students to achieve their personal best?
Do you strive to empower your students to become confident, curious and compassionate learners?
If you answered yes to these questions, we have an exciting opportunity for a talented Lead Teaching Assistant to join us at Oasis Temple Quarter.
The successful candidate will support our SENCO as well as the wider school team, to raise learning and attainment for our students. You’ll be joining our team of dedicated and motivated practitioners, establishing the culture, ethos, and values of a new free school.
We are looking for someone who can:
Assist the SENCO in leading the provision for special educational needs across the school
Demonstrate an informed approach to teaching and learning by using specialised Special Educational Needs (SEN) strategies to support pupils individually, in small groups or as a whole class in their progress and learning
Support pupils with universal and targeted support for all areas of their Educational and Health Care Plan (EHCP) – communication, interaction, well-being and motor skills
This role will involve administrative tasks linked to the statutory elements of SEND.
The OATQ journey
We opened our doors in September 2023 on the site of Oasis Academy Brislington, before moving to our purpose-built temporary home on Spring Street in Bedminster in January 2024. We are currently located less than 0.5miles from Temple Meads train station, at the heart of our vibrant city centre.
In 2027, we will move to our permanent site, situated in Bristol’s Temple Quarter development zone, one of the most exciting regeneration projects in the UK at present. Temple Quarter will become a world-class gateway to the region that unlocks the city of Bristol and the West of England’s potential. A series of well-connected and thriving mixed-use communities will benefit new and existing residents, employees and visitors with new homes, jobs, infrastructure, and opportunities. Oasis Academy Temple Quarter will be at the heart of this development.
Academy context
Currently our Academy comprises of two-year groups, Year 7 and Year 8. In September 2025 we will have 3-year groups with the following cohort sizes:
Year 7 – 120 students
Year 8 – 150 students
Year 9 – 120 students
When we move to our permanent site in 2027, we will have a PAN of 1600 students (1200 in Y7 – Y11 and 400 in sixth form), and we expect our cohort to be truly representative of the central part of Bristol, in all its diversity.
Our students have embraced our culture and show pride in being part of OATQ. The Oasis Way is taught explicitly to students, and we are pleased to say that, so far, our students are responding brilliantly to the high expectations we set.
WHY JOIN US?
Access to an iPad and laptop for all staff.
The opportunity to further your career within the Trust and region.
Access to Eye Care vouchers and a national Cycle to Work scheme.
Access to Health Shield Cash Plan which can include 24/7 access to a GP, assistance with the cost and access to dental treatment, eye-care, physiotherapy, and chiropody.
Trust wide recognition of the challenges to mental health, facing both staff and students, and the support of our National Mental Health Team which is staffed by professionally qualified Mental Health Nurses.
Confidential Counselling services for you and those that live with you, should times get tough.
