At Lower Farm Primary, we are looking for a diligent, committed and caring person who is passionate about supporting children with their social, emotional and academic development to join our wonderful Nursery as a teaching assistant.

The additional medical training is to provide support for a pupil who has a 1:1 health carer. This will include Tracheostomy awareness, suction via an artificial airway and escalation of medical concerns such as a blockage or decannulation. You will not be expected to provide care should the health-funded support not be in place. This is in addition to education, stimulation and play. Experience of working with children who have similar medical needs would be advantageous.

Appointment to this post is subject to an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check as well as other pre-appointment checks outlined in Keeping Children Safe in Education (September 2024) which will include an online check.
