What skills and experience we're looking for
TWO FIXED TERM TEACHING ASSISTANTS REQUIRED FOR IMMEDIATE START
These details should be read in conjunction with the XS10.4 Teaching Assistant Job Description.
We are looking for versatile, well-organised and dedicated Teaching Assistants to join our SEN Team until July 2026.
There are 2 posts available, 1 for 4 days and 1 for 2 days per week.
The successful candidates will be working with students across all year groups, providing both in-class support and delivering interventions to small groups. We are looking for staff who:
• Are enthusiastic about working with a range of pupils with differing needs and abilities
• Show initiative and a keenness to be involved in all aspects of school life
• Take a flexible and pro-active approach to working
• Have a proven track record of good working relationships and professionalism
• Feel confident working both 1:1 and with small groups of students.
The school day is 8.30am-3.30pm Monday to Friday.
The successful applicants will have high expectations, a commitment to excellence and be passionate about meeting the needs of every child. They will be able to offer support across the curriculum and demonstrate that they can engage well with young people and build positive relationships.
Previous experience of working with young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities is preferred but is not essential as a range of training packages are available. We would particularly welcome applications from applicants with primary experience and also those considering:
• Teaching as a career
• Returning to work following a career or other break
• A job that can offer some flexibility around family life.
Essential qualities include discretion, empathy, good personal organisation and time-keeping, excellent communication skills and a desire to see young people achieve their potential.
The candidates will be joining an existing team of experienced and very supportive Teaching Assistants.
Please note that applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis and interviews may be conducted and appointments made before the final closing date so early application is encouraged.
CLOSING DATE: Thursday 26th February
