  • Play an active role in supporting families and liaising with external professionals. 

  • Provide guidance and support to other teaching assistants as needed. 

What We’re Looking For: 

We are looking for someone who: 

  • Holds HLTA status and meets the HLTA Standards. 

  • Has experience in supporting children’s learning, including those with SEND – specifically Autism

  • Demonstrates strong communication, organisational and ICT skills. 

  • Understands safeguarding, equality and child development. 

  • Brings a flexible, empathetic and proactive approach to working with children and staff. 

  • Has a strong understanding of the National Curriculum and EYFS Framework. 

  • Has experience working with children in a school setting 

  • Is empathetic, patient, and committed to inclusive education 

What We Offer: 

  • A welcoming and inclusive school community. 

  • Ongoing professional development opportunities.

Safeguarding: 

Wath Victoria Primary School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. All appointments are subject to appropriate vetting checks, including an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check, in line with Keeping Children Safe in Education. 

As an organisation using the DBS to assess applicants’ suitability for positions included in the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order, we comply fully with the DBS Code of Practice. We are committed to the fair treatment of all applicants and staff, regardless of background. Having a criminal record will not necessarily bar you from working with us – this will depend on the nature of the role and the details of any offences. 

If shortlisted, you will be asked to complete a Criminal Records Declaration Form. Any relevant disclosures will be discussed openly and fairly prior to any offer of employment. Failure to disclose relevant information may result in the withdrawal of an offer or dismissal.
