  • Good organisational skills and works to deadlines • Someone who is willing to go the extra mile • Experience of working with children
  • Ambition to develop as a professional
  • Natural empathetic skills – an interest in nurture education
  • Strong behaviour management skills

Commitment to work in line with the Christian ethos of the school. Visits to the school are warmly welcomed, appointments can be made by contacting the school office on 01757 270282.

We are looking for the right person to join our team who has high expectations for learning, can establish a respectful, positive relationship with pupils and can implement effective behaviour management strategies to enable our pupils to flourish.

The teaching assistant position is based in our brand-new nurture hub, working alongside another teaching assistant to support a small group of pupils to access the curriculum. The role is within a private classroom, offering a bespoke plan of socio-emotional support. The position involves half a day of planning time a week, working under the direct supervision of the class teacher, to deliver an outstanding curriculum offer to the children in the nurture hub.

If you are invited to interview on Friday 3rd May, we would like to see you work with a group of children in the nurture hub, teaching an activity that develops social skills. We will support you to plan this task.

8:45am – Noon – SATA (Senior Advanced Teaching Assistant)

Noon – 12:30pm – Break

12:30pm – 1:00pm – MSA in the nurture hub

1:00pm – 3:30pm – SATA

The successful candidate will join a small team, committed to ensuring that our pupils are given every chance to succeed.

We can offer:

  • A designated teacher of support who will provide planning and nurture guidance each day
  • An outstanding team, ready to welcome you and value your contribution to our school
  • Tailored continuous professional development to encourage you to be the best that you can be
  • Children who want to learn and will respond well to good teaching
