Job description

A small school located in the borough of Pendle is seeking to appoint a high calibre Teaching Assistant to work within their year 4 class. The role will commence on a full-time basis starting immediately after May half-term. Due to unforeseen circumstances, the school is just now advertising for this position at this late stage in the term. Owing to this, the successful practitioner will initially start on a temporary contract.

The school is small in size and therefore has a wonderful sense of community and belonging. Pupils are well behaved across the key stages and parents are well engaged with their child’s learning. Facilities here are good, especially their large outdoor provision area which is keenly utilized across the curriculum. The Head Teacher is incredibly invested in the CPD and progression of staff; this is a truly brilliant opportunity for any suitable candidate seeking full-time work. Standards within the school are high, and you would therefore work alongside some excellent primary practitioners.

In order to secure this role, you must hold a minimum level 2 qualification, have recent and relevant classroom experience, and be able to provide excellent references. All applicants will require the appropriate qualifications and training for this role.

This advert is for a temporary position. In some cases, the option to make this role permanent may become available at a later date. Teaching Personnel is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. We undertake safeguarding checks on all workers in accordance with DfE statutory guidance ‘Keeping Children Safe in Education’; this may also include an online search as part of our due diligence on shortlisted applicants.

We offer all our registered candidates FREE child protection and prevent duty training. All candidates must undertake or have undertaken a valid enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. Full assistance is provided.
