What skills and experience we're looking for
The Holt House and Carterknowle Schools Federation is looking for a senior teaching assistant to join our staff team at Carterknowle Junior School.
You will need to have experience of working with KS2 children and supporting them effectively. You will be expected to be skilled in working with individuals, with small groups and in supporting the teacher with the whole class. You will need to have high expectations for what junior children can achieve both in their learning and in their independence, while being able to provide good pastoral support and care. As a senior TA you will assist class teachers with preparation, assessment, supporting with adaptive learning and delivering interventions. You will be called upon to supervise a class for short periods as ad hoc cover. Good numeracy and literacy skills are essential for this post.

We can offer you support and continuing professional development so that you can fulfil your role well. Carterknowle Junior School is a lovely school with wonderful children who are eager to learn. We are committed to meeting children’s individual learning needs, working in partnership with parents and carers. Break time and lunchtime supervision is part of this role. The working hours are Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays: 8.30 am – 4.00 pm (with two daily breaks of 15 and 30 minutes). Further information can be found on our website https://www.carterknowle.sheffield.sch.uk/
Commitment to safeguarding
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare and safety of children and young people; we expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. This post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act (ROA) 1974. Shortlisted candidates will be asked to disclose any cautions or convictions prior to interview. The amendments to the ROA Exceptions Order 1975 (2013 & 2020) provide that certain convictions and cautions are 'protected' and are therefore not subject to disclosure to employers. The successful candidate will complete an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check and a Children’s Barred List check.
