- A patient, flexible, and resilient approach.

- Term-time only working (37.5 hours per week), providing additional annual leave during school holidays.
- A rewarding opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children and young people.
- Ongoing training and professional development opportunities.
- A supportive and collaborative working environment.
- Career progression opportunities for experienced education professionals.
Key Responsibilities As Teaching Assistant:
- Support the delivery of high-quality teaching and learning through classroom support, small group work, and one-to-one interventions, helping pupils achieve their individual learning goals.
- Monitor, assess, and record pupil progress, contributing to personalised learning plans and supporting positive educational, social, and emotional outcomes.
- Work collaboratively with teachers and colleagues to develop engaging, differentiated learning experiences and maintain effective learning resources and classroom environments.
- Promote safeguarding, wellbeing, and positive behaviour by creating a safe, supportive, and inclusive learning environment for all pupils.
