Advert

We are looking to appoint a skilled, enthusiastic and supportive Teaching Assistant to provide individual and small group support to pupils Year 2.  You will be required to work closely with class teachers to maximise curriculum access for the pupils by delivering practical, relevant learning experiences, providing emotional and mental health support and supporting the acquisition of early phonics and basic skills. We encourage independence in all our pupils, so you will be expected to work with other pupils at times, both in and out of the classroom setting. You must have a good standard of English and Maths, and be able to communicate effectively with adults and children. We are looking for a person who enjoys working with children, is resilient, works well as part of a team and has a good sense of humour. Quite simply, we are looking to employ the staff our pupils deserve.
