About The Role:
Kehelland Village School are looking for a dedicated, enthusiastic individual to join our team, supporting our wonderful children with their development in learning and wellbeing.
Initially this post is based in our KS2 classes where the role is to support groups and individuals as needed and directed by the class teachers.
We can offer a fantastic team to work with, who work hard with enthusiasm and joy to deliver the very best outcomes for children. We have a collaborative and fulfilling workplace, where we look after each other and thoroughly enjoy what we do. No two days are the same and we actively encourage applications from individuals with a deep seated desire to care for others. We have a wonderful school that we and the children are proud of. We have caring, respectful and happy children who are a pleasure to work with. An outstanding sense of humour and love of children are essential!
Being in a small school we all work across the school to ensure the children are our priority and that their needs are front and centre of all we do. We have a very inclusive and flexible approach to education. Nurture, problem solving and a willingness to think creatively to solve problems are also important skills to have.
At Kehelland we value each other as individuals and our children as individuals. Our core values run through all we do:
We are Safe
We are Loved
We are Joyful
We Succeed
We are Making Memories
If you identify with the above then we would love to consider you for the post.
About You:
You will need to have a love of children and a deep desire to support and improve academic and pastoral outcomes. An excellent sense of humour and problem-solving approach to all you do is essential! Working in a small team, you will need to be flexible, able to form positive relationships with adults and children and have a outgoing and proactive approach to all things!
