Join Our Wonderful Team at our Client School
Do you have a big heart, lots of patience, and a sense of fun? Our school is looking for a full-time Teaching Assistant (08:30–15:30, term-time only) to join our dedicated and caring staff team – and we're also on the lookout for friendly, flexible supply TAs who can step in to help us cover classes when needed.
At the school, every day is different, and every child is unique. Our children need adults who can encourage, guide, and nurture them – sometimes with lots of smiles and creativity, and sometimes with a calm, steady presence when behaviours become a little more challenging. You'll be part of a supportive and experienced team that shares ideas, celebrates successes, and always puts the children first.
What makes this role special?
* You'll be helping children with a wide range of needs – supporting their learning, developing their independence, and being a champion for their achievements.
* No two days will ever be the same – some days will be filled with laughter and learning, and others will test your patience and problem-solving skills (but we promise you'll never be bored).
* You'll be part of a team that's full of warmth, humour, and determination.
We'd love to hear from you if you have experience in…
* Schools, nurseries, or early years settings.
* Youth work, sports coaching, or after-school clubs.
* Health or social care roles, particularly with children or young people.
* Supporting individuals with additional needs, disabilities, or behavioural challenges.
* Or simply lots of energy, empathy, and a willingness to learn on the job
The perfect person for us will be:
* Positive, caring, and resilient.
* A great communicator with both children and adults.
* Someone who can see the potential in every child and help them shine.
* Ready to roll up their sleeves and get stuck into the wonderful, messy, magical world of primary school life.
Start date: As soon as possible.
Hours: Full-time (08:30 – 15:30, term-time only) OR supply cover opportunities.
If you'd like to be part of something truly rewarding, where every day brings both challenges and joy, we would love to hear from you.
Apply today and help us make every moment count for our amazing children
