Page - Teaching Assistant - Intake Primary Academy
We are looking to appoint a talented and enthusiastic Teaching Assistant to join our supportive and creative team. The successful candidate will be working with individuals and groups of children in the classroom alongside the class teacher or outside the main teaching area, working with intervention groups. The ability to be flexible and accommodating to the needs of the school is paramount.
We are looking for candidates with commitment to the inclusion and success of all children, someone who works well as part of a team. The successful candidate will have good literacy and numeracy skills. Experience in supporting the inclusion of vulnerable children would be advantageous.
In return we offer a positive, caring environment where all skills and relationships are nurtured. The school prides itself on the level of support given to pupils in the classroom, the successful candidate would be expected to contribute to this.
The Astrea Academy Trust is a multi-academy trust which is committed to inspiring beyond measure. Our Academies – primary, secondary and all-through – do not subscribe to the ‘schooling’ stance of a results-driven philosophy but rather state emphatically that education is about much more than just attainment.
If you are motivated by contributing to a culture of constant improvement, and if you are seeking to improve outcomes for young people in a dynamic and growing Academy Trust, then we would love to hear from you.
Candidates will need to demonstrate:
- be full of enthusiasm and demonstrate the ability to work collaboratively to secure the best outcomes for all children
- they are well organised and motivated
- they will actively develop positive relationships with parents and carers
- a sense of fun and a strong desire to achieve
- be able to use their initiative
In return, we can offer:
- fantastic children
- the opportunity to work in a vibrant, professional learning community that seeks excellence
- a commitment to continuing professional development
- a supportive and friendly team
We welcome all applicants who meet the criteria in the accompanying recruitment pack to apply for this exciting role.
Please note that any form of application other than that on an Astrea Academy Trust Application form will be rejected. Application forms should be returned via email to Jane.Grayson@astreaintake.org
