This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced professional who is committed to helping students thrive - academically, socially and emotionally.

As a HLTA, you will work closely with teachers and the SEND team to support students both in and out of the classroom. You will lead tailored interventions, contribute to planning and assessment, and help deliver a broad and balanced curriculum.

We are driven to ensure all our students have an incredible education that inspires and prepares them for the next step in their journey. With 650 students we are able to really get to know each of them and our sense of community is a real strength of our school.

Your professional development is really important to us. We want you to have the skills and training so you can flourish in your role. We care about your wellbeing and we want to work with you to ensure we do all we can to support you.

We would love to show you around our school to meet our wonderful students and to get to know us better. Please contact Kate Duckmanton on kate.duckmanton@sirthomasfremantle.org if you wish to arrange a visit.
