1:1 Learning Support Assistant

We are looking for an enthusiastic and committed 1:1 Learning Support Assistant to help enhance the learning outcomes of a child in KS1. The working pattern is 16.5 hours per week spread over Monday-Friday mornings. Successful candidates will be required to work flexibly, taking direction from the class teacher and SENCO in adapting and planning activities to help the child progress. Previous experience of working with young children is desirable, but not essential. The school will be able to offer full training to the right candidate.

We would welcome applications from people with energy, patience and a genuine commitment to working with a range of children.

We are looking for candidates who:

• Have a caring and positive disposition.
• Are versatile and able to support our teachers in delivering a high standard of learning to pupils of all abilities;
• Want to be a member of a creative and dynamic staff team with high expectations for our children;
• Are able to communicate effectively with parents/carers, colleagues and other professionals;
• are able to contribute to our positive, safe, caring and supportive environment;
• Have GCSE standard, or equivalent, in Maths and English.
