Central Co-operative Learning Trust is seeking to appoint two highly effective teaching assistants from September 2026 - initially on a fixed term contract for one year.

Grange School is an ethnically diverse and culturally rich infant school, with an attached nursery, situated in the middle of Burton-upon-Trent. We have high expectations of everybody in our school and our inclusive environment aims to inspire curiosity, creativity and a lifelong love of learning in each individual.

Working alongside class teachers to adapt activities and ensure inclusive learning, you will work closely with pupils in Early Years and/or Key Stage 1. The role may require you to work alongside individual children and groups, and take the lead in managing small groups of pupils for specific interventions. The position will also include supporting pupils at lunchtime. We are looking for candidates with strong behaviour management, good interpersonal skills and a caring personality. The role is ideal for those who have a strong understanding of child development and early learning and experience of supporting pupils with a range of Special Educational Needs and Disabilities.

Visits to the school are strongly encouraged and will be facilitated on Tuesday 30th June 2026 at 1545. To arrange an appointment for a visit please contact Miss Smith by email office@grangeschool.academy or by telephone 01283 564325

We can offer a welcoming team, a warm and nurturing work environment and development opportunities to support your own professional growth.

This school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people/vulnerable adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

This position is subject to appropriate vetting procedures including a criminal record check from the Disclosure and Barring Service (formerly CRB) which will require you to disclose details of all unspent and unfiltered spent reprimands, formal warnings, cautions and convictions as part of the recruitment process.
