Do you have a passion for learning? If so, please join us and be part of Team Tunbury!
Our teaching assistants are highly skilled and play an active and valuable role in shaping our children's learning experiences, in partnership with our teachers. We can offer a professional and friendly setting, with people who work hard to make Tunbury a very special place to be.
Due the retirement of a long serving member of our team, we are looking for a new TA to join us in Year 1 or Year 2, working either full-time or four days per week. Initially, this is a temporary appointment from November 2025 until the end of this academic year. Due to the short timescales, applicants will be reviewed before the closing date, with interviews being held before half term, so please do apply early (ideally before 14th October) if you are interested in this role.
What can we offer?
1. A supportive ethos throughout the school
2. Strong teamwork within class, year group and phase teams
3. Sparkly, happy children
Teaching assistants work across year groups and phases to support all children, including those with SEND, as well as providing class-based support. Children with SEND at Tunbury experience an inclusive, flexible curriculum. They learn in a nurturing environment in which they are supported to fulfil their potential.
The successful candidate will hold GCSEs in English and Mathematics at Grade C or equivalent. A formal TA qualification is desirable, but not absolutely necessary; support can be provided in the role for the right person. You will be able to uphold the school’s positive image within the community and want to make a difference to our children’s lives.
