Teaching Assistant job summary

We are seeking to appoint a friendly, energetic and enthusiastic Teaching Assistant to work within our successful, creative school. We need someone who has had experience of working with children with additional needs, particularly autism and/or SEMH. Initially, this role will be within a Year 2 classroom.

We are a diverse and inclusive school with a strong commitment to providing quality provision to all children, regardless of need. You will need to be flexibile and work effectively as part of a team.

Our school champions robust career progression, so if you are looking to possibly move into teaching in the future, this could be an first step.

• Organised?
• A warm and friendly face to children, parents and colleagues?
• Passionate about learning, resilient and have a sense of humour?

We recommend you visit our school in the first instance to get a feel for us! Also, please have a look at our website, including our most recent Ofsted report.

Hours: 8:30am - 3:30pm (1 hour lunch) unless you would like an additional separate contract to cover a 1/2 hour lunch duty.

You are warmly invited to telephone the Headteacher, who will be pleased to discuss the post in more detail.
