Academics are currently working with the Headteacher at this very friendly and successful Primary school in Westminster to recruit a teaching assistant to join their team from January.
The role involves working alongside a child in Year 1 who needs extra support to move around the school as he uses a walking frame and has a visual impairment. The child is very friendly, loves coming to school, and his parents are very supportive. He has excellent behaviour and thoroughly enjoys taking part in lessons. As his 1:1 Teaching Assistant, you will assist him in class to ensure he can access the curriculum using visual aids and provide general academic support, as well as help him move around the school if needed.
This role would be perfect for a graduate taking their first steps into education ahead of further training to become a teacher or educational psychologist, or for an existing teaching assistant with a Level 3 SEN, Teaching Assistant, or childcare qualification. Full training will be provided, and you will work alongside an experienced SENCo and participate in regular visits with visiting therapists.
The ideal candidate will be someone who can make learning fun and has a calm and patient nature. Good English and Maths skills are required, along with an enthusiastic and positive approach to working with children. Trials will take place the first week in November, with the successful Teaching Assistant joining the team either immediately or in January. Please get in touch for further information about the role and to arrange your trial day.
