The successful candidate will be part of our Learning Support team working with students who experience difficulties in accessing the curriculum.
The objective of this post is to boost the numeracy skills of targeted students to better enable these students to access the whole curriculum. The needs of the students will vary; some will have special educational needs such as Dyslexia or ASD. Our HLTAs would generally work with small groups of students, within the main classroom, to ensure students’ progress and to boost their confidence. The role will involve planning, preparing and delivering group work or team teaching with the main class teacher.
As with all HLTAs the post holder will progress students’ learning and with other professionals to support pupils’ social, emotional and physical wellbeing. It is necessary for the candidate to have qualifications in Maths/Numeracy equivalent to at least NVQ Level 2. The post requires a good standard of education and an attitude which is positive and supportive towards young people.
We seek to develop our staff through a professional growth model and treat everyone as an individual; we value personal strengths and qualities. Our school is set in a 55 acre site midway between London and the Channel Ports. You will enjoy a unique working environment in the heart of the Weald of Kent including discounts and offers with Kent Rewards, RAC and enhanced pension contributions. There is also a nursery based on the school site which offers discounts to Homewood Staff.
Closing date: an early application is encouraged as we review applications as we receive them.
