The Orchards is such a special place to learn and grow. We are proud of our school and its wonderful grounds and have high expectations for every child. At The Orchards, we believe that children are born with a passion for enquiry and a desire to attain, and we continuously aspire to engage and expand these appetites within a welcoming, purposeful and creative environment.

Our pupils demonstrate kindness, compassion, and a wonderfully inquisitive nature, as they encompass their own growth mindset through the Power of Yet! Here, we do not see potential as ‘finite’ and something to be ‘fulfilled’, but instead as an ever-growing target that adapts and evolves with each individual.

In unity, The Orchards’ dedicated staff strive to make connections with children, to help them feel valued, accepted, and safe. Our Orchards’ Values of Pride, Enjoyment, Achievement and Respect are woven through every aspect of our school and continue to guide our mission to help each individual child develop a love of learning and to cultivate and explore their own interests in a secure and challenging environment.

We seek to appoint an excellent, enthusiastic, creative and motivated 1:1 Teaching Assistant. The successful applicant will have a keen interest in predominantly working with a SEND pupil with complex needs in the Early Years, mainly on a one to one basis in a classroom setting but sometimes in a group, during lunchtime and break times to model appropriate behaviour and encourage participation.
