Looking for a role where no two days feel the same… or one where you can really settle in and make your mark?
We’ve got both.
We’re working with a brilliant mix of mainstream primary schools across Southwark, and they’re on the lookout for Teaching Assistants who can step in, support pupils, and bring a calm, positive presence to the classroom, whether that’s for a day, a term, or longer.
-----------------------------------
What’s on offer?
Daily supply
Perfect if you like variety and flexibility. Choose your days, try different schools, and keep things fresh.
Long-term roles
Fancy something more consistent? We’ve got ongoing placements where you can build relationships, grow your confidence, and become a real part of the school team.
-----------------------------------
What you’ll be doing
* Supporting pupils in class, from group work to 1:1 support
* Helping the teacher keep lessons running smoothly (and calmly!)
* Encouraging positive behaviour and engagement
* Being that steady, reassuring presence pupils rely on
You’re the glue that holds it all together, and schools know it.
-----------------------------------
What we’re looking for
* Experience working with children, in schools or similar settings
* A patient, adaptable approach (every day’s a little different)
* Confidence to get stuck in and support where needed
* A genuine passion for helping young learners thrive
-----------------------------------
Why work with Protocol Education?
* Weekly pay through PAYE, no umbrella faff
* Free access to our CPD Academy to build your skills
* A friendly consultant who actually listens to what you want
* Local schools that value support staff and welcome you properly
* Flexible work that fits around your life
-----------------------------------
Whether you’re after a couple of days a week or something more long-term, we’ll help you find a role that fits, like your favourite seat in the staffroom.
