Teaching Assistant (Level 2 or Level 3)

Do you have a Level 2 or 3 Certificate in Supporting Teaching and Learning in Schools? Are you looking for a fresh challenge in a supportive school as a Teaching Assistant? If so, we may have the perfect position for you!

EdEx are working with one of our long-standing client schools in the borough of Waltham Forest to find a Teaching Assistant (Level 2 or Level 3) to support children with their reading, writing and various learning activities, inside and outside of the classroom.

Our client primary school in Waltham Forest is a mainstream Primary school, graded Outstanding via Ofsted, with a large support staff team, most of which have been at the school for 3 or more years, a testament to the culture at the school. Pupils are happy, staff are looked after and parents/families speak highly of the school.

We are looking for experienced Teaching Assistants (Level 2 or Level 3) to join the school starting September 2025. Working Monday-Friday, school hours on a long-term basis, i.e. starting September 2025 and being with the school at least until the end of the academic year (July 2026).

The school has had two Teaching Assistants relocate, meaning they have 2 Teaching Assistant vacancies, which very rarely come up!

• Paid weekly, daily rate of £110 - £115 per day - experience dependent
• Ideally have a Level 2 or Level 3 qualification in supporting Teaching and Learning in schools (or any equivalent qualifications/experience)
• Long term contract - at least for an academic year - ASAP till July 25 (scope for a permanent contract if interested from Sept 25)
• Located in Waltham Forest - East London
• Previous experience working with children - We just want passionate candidates!
• Plenty of CPD, training and support from SLT and external training providers (school is well-funded not in a big deficit)
• Start ASAP - guaranteed to work at one school, long-term, no daily cover roles bouncing between schools
• Provide support to pupils across EYFS & KS1 & KS2
• Work with groups of children to carry out valuable interventions
