We are looking for people to be a flexible part of our Team with ad hoc work as a Bank Teaching Assistant.
About this Role
We know that there are points in people’s lives where they are not able to commit to a full time position but are hoping to gain experience whilst doing something rewarding. Being part of a school community is great stepping stone especially if you are looking to gain hands-on experience before training to teach, or you're considering pathways such as becoming an Educational Psychologist or Speech Therapist.
As our school continues to flourish and grow, we’re seeking enthusiastic and dedicated TAs without the commitment of full time working to join our team. Having recently undergone an exciting transformation, we’re proud of our achievements and believe West Hill is a truly special place to learn and work.
Here’s what makes this role exceptional:
1. Amazing children who are eager to learn and grow.
2. A friendly and supportive community of staff, parents, and governors.
3. A strong focus on staff well-being and personal development.
4. Opportunities to work alongside a range of professionals, gaining invaluable experience and skills to enhance your career.

SAFEGUARDING AND FURTHER INFORMATION
The successful candidate will be subject to a satisfactory enhanced disclosure from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).
The Howard Partnership Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
Due to the nature of this role, it will be necessary for the appropriate level of criminal record disclosure to be undertaken. In making your application, it is essential you disclose whether you have any pending charges, convictions, bind-overs or cautions and, if so, for which offences. This post will be exempt from the provisions of Section 4 (2) of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. Therefore, applicants are not entitled to withhold information about convictions which for other purposes are ‘spent’ under the provision of the Act, and, in the event of the employment being taken up; any failure to disclose such convictions will result in dismissal or disciplinary action. The fact that a pending charge, conviction, bind-over or caution has been recorded against you will not necessarily debar you from consideration for this appointment.
