Thank you for your interest in applying for the post of Higher Level Teaching Assistant at Disley Primary School.

This is an exceptional opportunity to join a high performing large primary school which is part of our Multi Academy Trust. The governors of this successful and happy primary school are seeking to appoint a passionate and motivated Higher Level Teaching Assistant.

You must demonstrate high expectations of children’s learning and a clear understanding of assessment. You must have a commitment to inclusion and to ensure high quality learning experiences for all children, whatever their needs. You will demonstrate an understanding of raising pupils’ achievement through a wide range of teaching strategies.

Disley Primary School is a very special place to be. We pride ourselves on being a happy, caring school where positive relationships are built and each child is valued as an individual. We provide a stimulating learning environment, which allows every individual to fulfil their potential. We constantly seek exciting ways of delivering both the Foundation Stage and National Curriculum requirements, whilst encouraging our children to develop socially, emotionally, academically and physically to achieve their full potential in every aspect of life. The Disley motto “Proud to Belong” underpins the culture of high expectations we have of our pupils.

Our children are at the heart of everything we do here at Disley. The partnership with parents and the link between home and school is a vital and integral part of the education of our children. We ask for parental involvement from the beginning by signing the "Home-School Agreement". We welcome the continued involvement of parents and cares and encourage them to participate in all that the school has to offer. Every effort will be made to ensure that your child settles into school as quickly as possible and feels happy and secure within the school environment. Our "open door" policy means that everyone is always welcome to come and talk if there are any worries that need sharing.

I would encourage you to browse the school website (www.disleyprimary.org.uk) to get a fuller understanding of life at Disley Primary School. I very much hope that you want to join our team and I look forward to receiving an application from you in due course.

We very much look forward to receiving your application to join our team.
