Higher Level Teaching Assistant

Haberdashers' Hatcham Free School · London · Lewisham

Job description

We are seeking to appoint an outstanding Higher Level Teaching Assistant to support KS2 learners and contribute effectively within a classroom setting. We are looking for someone who has the dedication and skills needed to work with SEND children; alongside the ability to be able to plan and deliver bespoke interventions; and manage the different behaviours that each child exhibits at any given time.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and we expect all staff and volunteers to share in this commitment. This post falls within the scope of regulated activity. Appointment is subject to an enhanced DBS with list checks (and other relevant checks). It is an offence to apply for the role if you are barred from engaging in regulated activity with children.

Reporting

This role will report into the Assistant Principal.

Staff Development ​

Our staff are important to us. We know that without great staff, our children will not be as successful. Therefore, Professional Learning is key to our success. As a new employee within the Trust, you will be supported by the Senior Directors of People and Professional Learning, alongside your line manager to realise your full potential. 'Our People Strategy is key to our success and integral to this is our commitment to equity, equality, diversity, and inclusion . Bringing this to life is the responsibility of every member of staff. We take seriously any behaviour which undermines it. Anyone applying to work with us, should share this commitment.’

We actively encourage applicants from colleagues from under-represented groups.
