Teaching and Learning Assistant (2 Posts)

We are looking to appoint two enthusiastic and committed teaching assistants, one is a permanent contract, and the other is a maternity cover position. Our school is a mainstream secondary school that also hosts a large provision for students with moderate to severe special educational needs.

Teaching assistants take on a wide range of roles in school, from academic support in lessons, to behaviour support and personal care. We would be interested in candidates who can contribute in any of these areas. Some specialist teaching assistant roles in school will bring with them an increase in salary.

The posts would suit candidates seeking a career as a teaching assistant, or recent graduates wanting school experience before undertaking teacher training.
