We are a special school for secondary pupils from Years 7 to 11 who have learning and additional needs. We require teaching assistants to work term time only, 30.25 hours per week (8.50am to 3.20pm on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and 8.35am to 3.20pm on Wednesday). You would be working under the direction of a teacher with students supporting whole class learning or with small groups of students or on a 1:1 basis.
