• A compassionate and resilient individual with a genuine passion for supporting students in mathematics
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build positive relationships with students and families
• An understanding of behaviour management strategies and SEND support
• Confidence in mathematics and the ability to explain concepts in an accessible and engaging way
• Willingness to undertake CPD and specialist training to support mathematics learning and intervention
• A team player who contributes positively to the ethos and wider life of the academy
• GCSE Mathematics, English and Science (Grade C/4 or above) and Teaching Assistant Level 3 qualification (or willingness to complete)

• Permanent contract
