Graduate Teaching Assistant

Ark Conway is looking for an ambitious and committed Graduate Teaching Assistant to join our team for one year from November 2026. This role will be supporting pupils in the primary curriculum and helping them to secure the knowledge, confidence and learning habits they need for secondary school. 

This is an excellent opportunity for a graduate who is interested in developing their understanding of teaching and learning, and who may wish to move on to a teacher training programme in the future. Historically, colleagues in similar roles have used this experience as a successful pathway into teacher training and future teaching roles. 

The successful candidate will work closely with teachers and leaders to support learning in class, lead small group work, deliver targeted interventions and help pupils make strong academic progress. They will develop a detailed understanding of the curriculum, particularly in reading, writing and mathematics, and will learn how excellent teaching, strong routines, precise feedback and high expectations help children succeed. 

At Ark Conway, we are committed to providing every pupil, regardless of background, with an excellent education and real choices in life. The Graduate Teaching Assistant will play an important role in this mission by supporting pupils to feel safe, known, challenged and successful.
