We are looking to appoint two Teaching Assistants to join a friendly, professional and supportive team within our Early Years and Infant & Junior provision.

The post-holder will assist across various subjects, promoting positive behaviour, and collaborating with teachers to implement Individual Education Plans (IEPs).

A level 3 Teaching Assistant qualification is essential, as is experience with the EYFS, Key Stage 1 or Key Stage 2 curriculum (ideally two of these three areas), and able to facilitate the transition from early years' play-based learning to the structured education of Key Stage 1, or the transition from KS1 to KS2.

With a commitment to supporting the educational, social, and physical development of pupils, they will possess the ability to motivate and inspire, fostering a positive and nurturing learning environment.
