We are seeking to appoint two suitably qualified Special Educational Needs Support Assistants (SSA) who will be able to support the learning of students in one to one, small group and whole class situations.
We are looking for colleagues who are team workers with first class communication skills. They must be committed to delivering an outstanding and inclusive education for our students. Excellent interpersonal and organizational skills are essential. Experience of working with young people with additional needs is highly desirable. We would particularly welcome applications from colleagues with a background in working with young people with Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs. These posts would suit a TA looking to develop their existing skills.
This is an exciting opportunity to join one of the North East’s highest achieving schools; our motto ‘Excellence for All’ is at the heart of our work. We have a strong focus on learning and teaching; offering many opportunities for advancement.
Based in a stunning coastal location, with a growing Sixth Form provision, where progress ranks in the top 6% nationally, we are rightly proud of the opportunities we offer for pupils and staff. Our ethos as an Anglican academy is entirely inclusive and no faith based pupil admission criteria are applied.
