We are looking for a confident, supportive and reliable Teaching Assistant to work 1:1 with a Year 7 pupil who is transitioning into secondary school.

The role will involve:
- Supporting a Year 7 pupil on a 1:1 basis throughout the school day
- Helping the pupil build confidence in a secondary school environment
- Supporting with classwork, organisation and understanding tasks
