Have you recently graduated from university and are considering a career in education? Do you have a keen interest in supporting children with Autism and other learning needs?

Tradewind Recruitment currently works closely with a range of mainstream Primary Schools in Chelmsford that are looking for their next graduate. These are full-time, term-time only roles, and for the strongest candidates, will often lead to full-time employment with the school. Our schools are particularly interested in hearing from graduates with degrees in Maths, English, Psychology, or a creative subject. Other disciplines will also be considered.

No two days are the same as a primary graduate TA, and you can expect a varied and exciting role in which you are constantly learning.
