We are seeking a dedicated and adaptable Teaching Assistant to join our primary school team, with a focus on leading targeted intervention groups. This role is ideal for someone passionate about helping children overcome barriers to learning and committed to ensuring every child reaches their full potential. This is an exciting opportunity for anyone wishing, to develop children’s learning, to improve the children’s life chances and to work with children across different year groups.
You will work closely with class teachers and the inclusion team to deliver high-quality, tailored support that helps each child close gaps in their learning. You will take ownership of planning and delivering small group interventions, tracking progress, and demonstrating measurable impact.
Key Responsibilities

• Set and manage your own timetable to effectively meet pupils’ needs
• Liaise regularly with teachers to identify priorities and adapt provision
• Work collaboratively as part of the school’s inclusion team
• Provide nurturing support that promotes confidence, independence, and personal development
The Ideal Candidate Will:
• Be highly adaptable and responsive to pupils’ individual needs
• Have strong communication skills and the ability to explain learning clearly in different ways
• Be committed to nurturing each child’s academic and personal development
• Be proactive and organised, with the ability to manage their own schedule
• Demonstrate a clear understanding of how to support children in closing learning gaps
• Be reflective and committed to showing measurable impact in their work
• Work effectively as part of a team and build positive relationships with staff and pupils
• Have a positive outlook and ‘can do’ attitude
• Experience of working with children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) or children on the Pupil Premium Register would be an advantage, although not essential.
What We Offer:
• A supportive and collaborative working environment
• Opportunities for professional development
• The chance to make a meaningful difference to pupils’ learning and progress
• A dedicated wellbeing lead and support structure for all staff
• A happy community of children who want to learn, parents who support the school and staff who are committed to improving each child’s outcomes
