The school are seeking to appoint a SEND Teaching Assistant to work closely with teaching staff, and other teaching assistants, supporting the delivery of learning activities, and work programmes, including the preparation of materials and resources. You will support and encourage students to develop their skills and knowledge, and give general guidance within and outside of the classroom.

This may involve planning, preparing and delivering learning activities for individuals/ groups and monitoring students. You will assess, record and report on the students’ achievement, progress and development.
The role of a Teaching Assistant involves working with students across Years 7 to 13 in a variety of subject areas, either on a 1-1 basis or in small groups.
