(Y)Our Opportunity
We are looking for an enthusiastic, dynamic, and proactive EYFS Teaching Assistant to join our supportive and collaborative team across our nursery and reception classes.
You will encourage our children to be unique, foster their curiosity, and support them on a journey of discovery, enabling them to be inquisitive and confident learners.
As an EYFS Teaching Assistant, you’ll immerse yourself in our stimulating Early Years Foundation Stage and engage in learning through creative play. The ability to sing in tune is not necessary; however, the ability to sing out of tune in front of children is essential.
You will be extremely well supported, working alongside a committed team of practitioners and teachers. It’s not necessarily the length of your experience as an EYFS Teaching Assistant that we are most interested in; it’s your passion and commitment to our mission, ensuring every child, whatever their background, receives a high-quality education.
This is a fixed-term contract until 31/08/2026.
The ideal EYFS Teaching Assistant will be someone who is:
* A great communicator and team player with excellent interpersonal skills
* Committed to helping develop an exciting and nurturing learning environment with indoor and outdoor activities
* Passionate about education and has the ability to plan for children's development
* Able to observe and plan activities for children in small groups
* Able to write accurate and effective assessments that reflect the needs, interests, and stages of development of the child
As an EYFS Teaching Assistant, we know you’re going to do great things. Investing in our employees' wellbeing and career development is a priority for us. We can offer you:
* A comprehensive induction programme
* Excellent ongoing CPD
* Progression opportunities into teaching through our TKAT SCITT programme
* Friendly and supportive environment, where everyone is committed to a work-life balance
* The opportunity to be part of exciting development and innovative change
* Access to trust resources and materials
* Cycle to work scheme
* TKAT Widerwallet discount program with a wealth of discounts
