GSL Education is working in partnership with a well-regarded primary school in Maldon to recruit a confident and capable Higher Level Teaching Assistant (HLTA) for a full-time role starting in September 2025.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys leading small groups, delivering targeted interventions, and occasionally stepping in for class cover. If you’re a qualified HLTA or an experienced teaching assistant ready for that next step, we’d love to hear from you!
Your Key Responsibilities:
Plan and deliver small group sessions and interventions, particularly in literacy and numeracy
Provide classroom support across KS1 and KS2 as needed
Supervise and lead classes during teacher absence (planned or occasional)
Support individual pupils with additional learning needs (SEN/EAL)
Assist with classroom preparation, resource organisation, and marking
Work closely with teachers, SENCOs, and leadership to ensure positive pupil progress
Uphold the school’s safeguarding and behaviour expectations consistently
Ideal Candidate Will Have:
HLTA qualification or relevant Level 4+ TA qualification (or significant school-based experience)
Experience supporting teaching and learning across the primary phase
Confidence managing groups and whole-class cover when required
Strong communication skills and a positive, flexible attitude
An enhanced DBS on the update service (or willingness to apply through GSL)
A genuine passion for supporting children’s education and wellbeing
What GSL Education Offers:
Competitive daily rates and weekly pay
A dedicated consultant who understands school support roles
Long-term opportunities with potential for permanent placement
FREE CPD and safeguarding refresher training
Access to a network of welcoming, well-managed Essex schools
