Higher Level Teaching Assistant job summary

About this Role

This pastoral HLTA role will advance pupils’ engagement, regulation, learning and behaviour. It will include working with individual pupils and groups to support their regulation through individually identified strategies and to determine appropriate provision pathways for those who are unable to access the core curriculum. The successful candidate will work with the building leads, the wider pastoral and attendance teams. They will support pastorally across sites and work to engage our most disengaged cohort, which will involve home visits, home education and liaising with external providers. The successful candidate will develop pupils' social and emotional progress, and liaise closely with parents, carers and external agencies to find the best solutions, support and ways forward for our young people.

The activities involve planning, preparing and delivering support, approaches and interventions, as well as monitoring, assessing and the reporting on pupils’ behaviour alongside the social and regulation skills. Whilst the positive and effective outcome enables pupils to learn and achieve better, this HLTA role is a pastoral role rather than a teaching and learning role.

The position would be an excellent progression and development opportunity for someone already working as a student liaison officer (BSO/SLO), pastoral learning mentor or head of year, and other similar roles. A driver's licence is essential as the successful candidate will work across sites.

We welcome interested parties to book in for an informal chat and tour of the school.
