About this Role

The staff and governors of Abbey Meads Community Primary School are offering an exciting opportunity to join our dedicated team. We wish to appoint an outstanding SEND Teaching Assistant to support children across the school for the hours advertised. The successful candidate must be confident supporting children’s Early Learning and must have a PASS in GCSE in English and Maths or equivalent.

This is a temporary post working with children with SEND, both on a 1:1 basis and in small groups.

Come and join our friendly, supportive and inspirational team!
As part of The Blue Kite Academy Trust, we are a forward-thinking school where staff have fun alongside the children, plan work that excites them and their pupils and have the chance to take risks.
You will work with outstanding teachers who let their creativity guide them and have access to the latest technologies, which prepare children for life in the 21st century. We build memories that children will carry with them for the rest of their lives.
If you have high expectations, want the best for pupils and want to make a difference, and if you have a sense of humour and a sense of fun, then come and look around Abbey Meads. It might just be the place for you.
You will be working 30.5 hours per week, term-time only, excluding Teacher Development Days for the times stated above. This includes a paid 45 minute lunch duty and 45 minute unpaid period for your own lunch Monday to Thursday and a 1 hour lunch duty on Fridays with a 30 minute unpaid period for your own lunch.
Abbey Meads Community Primary School always has the welfare of children as its first priority, and our recruitment procedures include the gathering of information about candidates and their suitability to work with young people.
