Teaching Assistant & Lunchtime Supervisor

We are seeking an amazing Teaching Assistant to support our wonderful children. If you are enthusiastic and have high expectations for children's achievements, we would love to hear from you. 

The successful applicant must be flexible, adaptable, able to respond to the needs of our children and an excellent team player with good interpersonal skills and dedication. We believe the ability to form positive relationships with children is key. You should be able to work using your own initiative and bring forward ideas as well as follow planning given to meet the child’s needs. This role will involve working with Key Stage 2 children. You will need to be confident with maths. A good level of literacy, both written and spoken, is also required. Everyone has their own strengths. If you have a particular strength in any area of the curriculum we would love to hear about it.

This role will include a range of responsibilities including supporting the class, working 1:1 with children with additional needs and leading small group work.
Enthusiasm, drive, creativity, initiative, and organisation skills are essential. Experience of working with additional needs is desirable. The role also includes a position as Lunchtime Supervisor.

We strongly believe that learning happens everywhere on the school site and as such the person appointed needs to be as happy working outside the classroom as within. Applicants are strongly invited to telephone or visit the school for more details about the school as well as looking at our website. This role is fixed-term, Thursdays and Fridays.

For an informal discussion regarding this role, please contact Mr Kristian Buxton Dean, Headteacher, on 01208 850547.
