- A calm, reflective and caring individual who understands the needs of children in an educational setting
- Adaptable and flexible in their approach, due to the nature of the role.
Applicants must have experience of covering classes across a range of age groups for the full range of primary subjects and have relevant qualifications (see job specification) and the necessary skills and expertise in line with the national HLTA professional standards (although qualification is not essential).
The post is full time based on Teacher hours with hours to be worked flexibly (8.30am until 4pm and 5pm on Wednesdays), with one weekly after school club, attendance at training days, staff meetings, etc) per week for 39 weeks a year.
