Do you want to work in a values-led school with a commitment to staff growth and well-being as well as outstanding progress for all pupils? If so, we would love to hear from you!

St. Andrew's is a Christian values-led, highly popular school and nursery in the heart of Kettering and is part of the Peterborough Diocese Academy Trust (PDET). We're proud of the way children not only make great progress in their learning, but also how we take such pride in developing our children's character and behaviour. Children are at the heart of every decision we make as we strive to serve and better our community.

We want St Andrew’s to be a beacon of our community that inspires adults and children alike with outstanding learning and teaching. Where children develop a thirst and love of learning that will be lifelong. We want St Andrew’s to be a school where children learn to love their neighbour as themselves and ‘Where young minds grow and young hearts learn to care’ through a thoughtful and wide-ranging development of pupils’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development within the Christian faith. We want our values to be our children’s virtues.

Following a recent successful OFSTED inspection in 2023, our school has received a very well-deserved rating of Good, and inspectors commented; "This is an extremely inclusive and welcoming school. Pupils get on well with each other. They are caring and kind. They enjoy positive relationships with staff. Staff hold pupils’ interests at the heart of all that they do."

We are proud to be recruiting for a Level 3 Teaching Assistant, to join our school and support our established nursery provision. This role is incredibly rewarding, and the successful candidate will share our goal, to ensure all children receive the support they need to flourish.

We are seeking someone who:

• Be able to provide an environment that delivers both education and care and enhances children’s learning opportunities.
• Have a working knowledge of the Early Years Foundation Stage.
• Have high expectations and be committed to raising the achievement of all children.
• Be supportive of the ethos, vision and values of the school.
• Have good communication, numeracy and literacy skills.
• Have a personal commitment to ongoing professional development.
