The successful applicant will be highly organised and efficient, resilient and confident and enjoy working within a busy school and college environment. This can be a fulfilling role in itself or serve as a springboard to a teaching career or other work with young people in the future. The ability to work as a team and learn new skills is essential, experience of working with young people in a school environment and proven success in using teaching resources and supporting learners would be advantageous, but full training will be provided.
