We are pleased to offer an exciting opportunity to work at New Lubbesthorpe Primary School.
New Lubbesthorpe Primary School opened its doors for the first time at the start of the Autumn term 2019, and we now require two further Learning Support Assistants who can help to ensure that the school delivers outstanding education. The school opened on a phased basis, starting with a Foundation Stage class of 30 and Year 1 pupils. We are now a 2-form entry school with 60 children per year group and 420 pupils across EYFS to Year 6 having opened to KS2 since 2021. We are a growing school with building work commencing later this year to gradually expand to a 3-form entry school beginning in EYFS 2026.
This means that we can offer you:
1. The chance to support teachers as they shape the future to deliver the best possible outcomes for pupils and the community;
2. Career development opportunities, within the growing school or elsewhere within the Trust;
3. A working atmosphere that is built upon trust, honesty, integrity and an unwavering commitment to excellence for children.
We are looking for:
4. Experienced and passionate support staff who can make a difference inside and outside of the classroom for children of all abilities;
5. Forward-thinking and collaborative individuals who are keen to help create an outstanding school;
6. Flexible workers who will use their initiative where necessary
The vacancy we are advertising is full-time and 39 weeks per year (term time plus teacher days) and also includes provision of lunchtime supervision:
