What skills and experience we're looking for

About the Role:

You will work across our mixed-age classes, supporting pupils’ learning and wellbeing. Rather than being assigned to a single class, you will work where the need is greatest, which may vary from day to day. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys variety, is calm under pressure, and values being part of a close-knit team where everyone mucks in.

We are looking for someone who:

  • Has a flexible and proactive approach to working across different year groups and supporting a range of needs

  • Works well in a team and communicates clearly with both adults and children

  • Has some experience of working with primary-aged children (school-based experience is desirable but not essential)

  • Is reliable, enthusiastic, and ready to get involved in all aspects of school life

In return, we can offer:

  • A warm, supportive staff team and a welcoming village school community

  • A varied role where no two days are the same

  • Opportunities for professional development

  • Beautiful surroundings and a school with a strong ethos and values

  • The chance to make a real difference in a small school where every child is known and valued

- Dedicated, inspirational and talented staff.

- An ambitious, supportive and committed governing body.

- An inclusive learning environment to meet our children’s needs.

- Supportiveparents and carers.

Little Milton Church of England Primary School is situated in a beautiful rural Oxfordshire village, close to the historic city of Oxford and within 5 minutes of the M40.

Throughout their time at Little Milton School, children are taught in classes of mixed age and ability, where they are encouraged to work together as well as independently. High quality personalised learning opportunities enable our children to thrive, providing them with the necessary experiences and skills to achieve their potential. Many opportunities are taken to extend learning beyond the four walls of the classroom, as we utilise the community in which we are situated from our local village sports facilities, dedicated Forest school for every child in the school throughout the year and in the later school years with a bi annual residential trip to Woodlands Educational Centre, experiencing the stunning Brecon Beacons . Much use is made of experts who are invited into our school to share their passion and knowledge for their subject.

We work in partnership with parents so that children leave our school as happy, confident, healthy and responsible young people with a highly developed sense of duty and resilience. The nurturing and supportive atmosphere of the school is also evident in the playground, where older and younger children are encouraged to play together and look after one another. Children’s mental health has always been important at Little Milton School and we are proud to have been a ‘Mind Up’ school for the last five years. With experienced staff, we have a well – established programme of supporting positive mental health in all classes on a daily basis.
