MAKE A REAL DIFFERENCE – EVERY SINGLE DAY

Are you passionate about helping young people succeed? Are you considering a career in education or looking to take your first step in a supportive, high‑performing school?

We are seeking a motivated and caring Teaching Assistant to join our dedicated team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys working with secondary‑aged students and wants to make a positive difference to their learning and wellbeing. The role is particularly well suited to those looking for a term‑time position, including recent graduates or individuals exploring a future career in teaching or education.

Who This Role Is For

This is for someone looking to begin their career in a school, and prior experience is not essential. We are looking for someone who:

  • Is enthusiastic, caring, and reliable
  • Enjoys working with young people
  • Is keen to learn and develop their skills in an education setting
  • May be considering teacher training or another education‑based career

You will receive guidance, training, and support from experienced staff, making this an ideal opportunity to gain valuable school‑based experience.

Above all, you will share our commitment to student wellbeing, inclusion, and achievement, and to supporting every young person to succeed.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As a Teaching Assistant, you will:

  • Support students in lessons, small groups and targeted interventions
  • Work closely with teachers and SENCOs to deliver tailored learning support
  • Help students build respect for themselves and others
  • Prepare students to be successful, building their confidence, independence and a love of learning
  • Be part of a collaborative and highly supportive Inclusion team
  • Assist with literacy, numeracy, and general learning activities
  • Contribute to a positive, inclusive, and supportive school environment

The role includes working within our Designated Special Provision (DSP) for students with Moderate Learning Difficulties (MLD), offering a bespoke and nurturing curriculum that enables outstanding progress.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
