Part-Time HLTA

We’ve got a rare opportunity for a confident, experienced HLTA to join a welcoming and community-focused primary school in Bristol.

This is a part-time role (2 days per week), perfect if you’re looking for flexibility but still want to play a key role in school life.

What’s the role?

You’ll be covering PPA and stepping into classes when needed, keeping learning on track and pupils engaged. Alongside this, you’ll have the chance to plan and deliver targeted interventions that genuinely move learning forward.

It’s a varied role, one day you might be leading a class, the next you’re working with a small group to build confidence or close gaps. No two days are the same, and that’s exactly what keeps it interesting.

Why this school?

This is a school that really looks after its people.

There’s a strong sense of teamwork, a leadership group that listens, and a shared belief that when staff feel supported, pupils thrive. Wellbeing isn’t just mentioned, it’s built into how the school runs, with flexibility considered wherever possible.

You’ll be part of a team that:

• Values every contribution, no matter your role
• Takes time to plan meaningful support for pupils
• Believes every child can succeed, with the right guidance
• Embraces a diverse community and the richness that brings

What you’ll bring

• HLTA status or strong experience at this level
• Confidence leading whole classes when needed
• A nurturing, inclusive approach to supporting pupils
• Understanding of a range of needs across the classroom
• A genuine belief that every child can flourish

What’s on offer

• A supportive, friendly staff team who’ve got your back
• Opportunities to grow and develop your career
• Access to a generous pension scheme
• Wellbeing support, including employee assistance and healthcare options
• Flexible working where possible
• Free onsite parking and great local transport links
• And yes… a steady supply of tea and coffee to keep you going

The important bits

• Part-time, 2 days per week
• Start date: ASAP
• Interviews: to be confirmed
