English Graduate Teaching Assistant | Year 1

Do you have an English degree and a soft spot for phonics, picture books, and the magic of early learning?

This welcoming Primary School in Denton is looking for a proactive, enthusiastic graduate to support a lovely Year 1 class. If you’re thinking about a future in teaching (or just love working with kids), this could be the perfect launchpad.

• Helping the class teacher prep, plan and deliver fun, focused lessons

• Providing one-to-one or small group support, especially during literacy time

• An English graduate with a real interest in education

• Someone who’s proactive, positive, and ready to roll up their sleeves

• Any experience working with children (in schools, clubs, mentoring etc.) is a big plus

• You don’t need to be qualified, just committed, kind, and keen to learn
