This is a fantastic and rare opportunity for someone wishing to join our school as a permanent classroom assistant (Learning Support Assistant). Initially, we are seeking someone to work in Year 2, however this may change depending on the school’s needs.

Excellent communication skills and a good standard of English are required. You must be hard-working, reliable, punctual and able to use your initiative. Teamwork is important as it ensures that we achieve the very best outcomes for our children. We are looking for someone who, with teacher support can supervise a class for periods.

We pride ourselves on being able to make that difference to our pupil’s progress, having a low staff turnover, good morale, well behaved children as well as a supportive SLT and Governing Body.

We are able to offer:

• Team of staff who are passionate about enabling all pupils to reach their potential.
• A cohesive multi-cultural community.
• A supportive and encouraging Inclusion and Leadership Team, committed to raising standards.
