Thank you for your interest in the role of Teaching Assistant.

Normanton Junior Academy is a forward-thinking, vibrant and inclusive 3-form entry junior school, with approximately 90 pupils in each year group. We pride ourselves on being a school that offers our pupils a well-rounded and truly enjoyable education, and place great emphasis on giving our children a wide range of opportunities in the arts, music and sport. We were judged as continuing to be a ‘Good’ school, by Ofsted, in July 2023 and we are looking for an inspiring and dynamic Teaching Assistant to join our fantastic team.

So, if you are an ambitious, talented and highly motivated practitioner, with a passion for ensuring children learn and achieve, and if you work hard and have the drive and energy to make a difference to children’s lives and their learning, then Normanton Junior Academy could be the school for you!

We offer excellent facilities: a large building, complete with purpose-built gym, stage and hall; brand new IT facilities; several spacious shared working areas; a library; well-equipped classrooms; and well-maintained outdoor play areas, including a large field to enable our children to explore, develop and nurture their talents and interests as they progress through our school.

We are a proud member of Waterton Academy Trust, joining in 2015. As a growing organisation - consisting of infant, junior and primary schools - Waterton Academy Trust’s main aim is to ensure all children receive the education that they deserve, and Normanton Junior Academy is very proud to be part of this.

We look forward to receiving your application.

Warm Regards,

Luke Welsh
