We are seeking to appoint a Teaching Assistant to support our teachers, and help children with their educational and social development, both in and out of the classroom.

 

The role is a long term role on a term time basis.

Ideally candidates must have experience of supporting children with special educational needs.  Candidates should be computer literate, demonstrating the use of appropriate software and with the ability to record observations. The ideal candidate will possess excellent communication skills, have the ability to work under pressure, and be able to prioritise effectively.

 

The person appointed will have the opportunity to work alongside very able colleagues in a well-resourced school. If you are hardworking, patient, flexible and have a genuine desire to work with children then we would like to hear from you.

You will be a strong team player who will contribute to the wider life of the school, have excellent communication and be able to work positively with children, staff, parents and other stakeholders.

 

We can offer you a supportive environment, opportunities for professional development and the chance to be guided by a strong leadership team.
