We are looking for an enthusiastic, skilled, and reliable teaching assistant to work as part of our TA team, initially until July 2025, as our school continues to grow.
Experience of supporting people to become independent, although not necessarily in a TA role, is highly desirable. It is also crucial that you can show you can build successful relationships with pupils, demonstrate flexibility in response to sensitivity to fluctuating needs, and show an ability to learn quickly. The successful applicant will have a good standard of English.
Our teaching assistants are accountable to the class teacher and SENCO, sharing the responsibility for raising standards and equipping the children with the skills and dispositions to be successful in life.
This role is for 38 weeks a year, working from 8.45 am to 3.15 pm, five days a week.
The School and all its personnel are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of the children. At interview, your motivation for working with children will be explored, as well as aspects from your application form. The selection process will also consist of activities including working with some of our pupils. Appointment to this post will be subject to an Enhanced Disclosure Application to the Disclosure and Barring Service. As part of the application process, we carry out online searches about candidates.
Please apply online through the Kent Teach website, detailing, in your ‘Personal Statement', how you fit the person specification. If you are shortlisted, you will be informed by e-mail soon after the closing date.
