At Insignis Academy Trust we are recruiting to a number of Assistant Teacher posts for the mainstream provision at The Kingsbrook School. Opened in September 2022 to 180 year 7 students, the school will grow by each year of entry until full in 2027-28, and so new members of the team are required to support our next cohort. Located at the heart of the Kingsbrook Estate in Aylesbury, the school boasts state of the art facilities across the mainstream school and a purpose built Inclusion Unit for children with additional Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs.

This role would suit a candidate who has significant experience of working alongside teachers within the classroom and other members of staff, and is passionate about inclusion and meeting the needs of all learners. The successful candidate will also have experience of supporting the teaching and the learning of all children and young people. As a member of our team, you will predominantly be deployed to support students with additional needs in our mainstream cohort, via in class and small group interventions. However, you may also be deployed to support students in the Inclusion Unit if the need arises.

Applicants should also have an excellent working knowledge of working in a school environment or with children and an excellent rapport with parents.

For any enquiries relating to the position please contact the Trust’s Human Resources Team, either by email recruitment@insignis.org.uk or by telephone 01296 744351, who will be happy to help.

Insignis Academy Trust operates rigorous ‘safer recruitment’ practices and the successful candidates will be required to undertake a criminal record check with the Disclosure and Barring Service.

Closing date: Monday 9th June 2025 at 12 Noon
