Do you want to make a REAL difference to the children and colleagues that you work with? We want every day to be exciting – not just for our children, but for everyone in our school community. To do this you will need to be (amongst other things) creative, caring, willing to take risks and most importantly focussed on enjoying your job and creating the best opportunities for the children you work with to learn, aspire and achieve.
You will need to be a dedicated and proactive individual, confident in your abilities to support primary aged pupils and with a passion for providing high levels of support. The role requires a degree of flexibility, alongside proven teaching experience. Your understanding of providing outstanding care will be coupled with an enthusiastic and dedicated approach.
