What skills and experience we're looking for

We are looking to appoint an adaptable, motivated and enthusiastic Level 2 Teaching Assistant to provide 1:1 support to one of our SEN pupils.

Our Teaching Assistants play an important role in the education of our pupils. You would work collaboratively with our teaching team to support all pupils to work towards achieving their individual outcomes and maximising their learning opportunities both within and outside of the school setting. If you have high expectations of student achievement and behaviour, good communication skills and a commitment to working as part of a team we would love to hear from you.

We are looking for someone who is able to work as part of a small team, is creative and able to adapt activities on the go. You will be working in a busy foundation/year 1 classroom and a sense of fun and enthusiasm for learning is a must! Experience of working with Widget and Makaton would be helpful but not essential.
