An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic Pupil Support Assistant to work in Canaan Lane Primary School, a new school which opened three years ago in the south of Edinburgh. From August 2023, the school will consist of two Primary 1 classes, two Primary 2 classes, two Primary 3, two Primary 4 and an Early Learning and Childcare facility. Within the school, there are nurturing, creative and well-resourced learning environments where learners are supported and encouraged to do their best and discover a love of learning. Outside, there are inspiring and vibrant spaces which reflect our vision for daily access to outdoor learning.
We are looking for conscientious, committed candidates with excellent inter-personal and communication skills. You will be working as part of a team and there will be many training opportunities to support you in working with our children and young people. Previous experience of working in a school would be desirable.

We are committed to a diverse and inclusive workforce where everyone feels valued and able to be their best. We particularly encourage applications from women for senior roles, as well as people from minority ethnic backgrounds, people with disabilities or neurodivergent people, care experienced people, carers and LGBT+ people across all levels of the organisation, all of whom are currently underrepresented. All applicants will be considered fairly based on skills and experience. Disabled and care-experienced applicants who meet the minimum job criteria will be guaranteed an interview.
