Make a Real Difference Every Day
At Belmont Primary School, we don’t just teach—we change lives. We’re on the lookout for a Pupil Support Worker/Teaching Assistant with heart, resilience, and a passion for helping students shine—no matter the challenges they face.
This is more than just a support role. This is about being the steady hand, the encouraging smile, and the person a young learner trusts to guide them through the good days (and the tougher ones too).
About the Role
As a Pupil Support Worker, you'll work side-by-side with teachers and pupils to build a calm, nurturing, and positive classroom environment where students can thrive—academically, socially, and emotionally.
You’ll:
Provide individual and small group support in lessons across a range of subjects
Help implement tailored educational programmes and behaviour plans
Support pupils’ social, emotional, and behavioural development, encouraging positive relationships and self-belief
Prepare learning materials and resources to bring lessons to life
Accompany pupils and staff on educational visits and enrichment activities
Occasionally support with transporting pupils (e.g. after detentions or school trips)
Keep clear records of student progress and wellbeing, contributing to a holistic picture of each learner
What We’re Looking For
We’re looking for someone who:
Has Grade C/4 or above in English and Maths (or equivalent)
Has a calm, patient and caring approach—especially in challenging moments
Loves working with young people and is passionate about making learning accessible for everyone
Can build strong, supportive relationships with pupils and staff alike
Has experience working with secondary-age pupils (ideal but not essential)
Can work as part of a team but is also confident taking initiative
Believes in the potential of every student—and won’t give up on them
