Help Every Child Reach Their Potential

Due to the growing needs of our pupils, we have two exciting opportunities for caring, dedicated and enthusiastic Teaching Assistants to join our team at Pelton Primary School.

Working as part of our inclusive and nurturing school community, you will support children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) to access learning, develop confidence, build independence and achieve their full potential.

At Connect Multi-Academy Trust, our pupils are at the heart of everything we do. We are committed to creating exceptional learning environments and supporting our staff to thrive professionally and personally.

As part of our growing Trust, you will benefit from:

• A supportive and collaborative working environment
• Opportunities for professional development and career progression
• A Trust-wide commitment to staff wellbeing
• Recognition and celebration of staff contributions
• The opportunity to make a genuine impact on the lives of children and young people

Our People Strategy reflects our ambition to be a great place to work, where talented people are encouraged to grow, develop and achieve their full potential.

If you are an enthusiastic and caring individual who is committed to helping children flourish both academically and emotionally, we would love to hear from you.

Connect Multi-Academy Trust is legally obligated to process a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check before making appointments to relevant posts. The DBS check will reveal both spent and unspent convictions, cautions, and bind-overs as well as pending prosecutions, which aren't 'protected' under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975 and check to establish that a person is not barred from 'regulated activity' as defined by the Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups Act 2006.

Please note that we operate a probationary period of 4 months across all jobs in the Trust (see attached policy for further details). You will receive a comprehensive induction to support you to successfully pass your probation.
