Graduate Primary Teaching Assistant

£500 - £560 per week
Full-time

Graduate Primary Teaching Assistant

Full-Time | Multiple Roles | September 2026 Start

Salary: £500 - £560 per week

Are you a recent or upcoming graduate looking to take their first steps into the world of education?

Do you have a passion for working with children and young people?

Have you got ambitions to inspire and support the journey of young learners through their primary school years?

KPi Education are currently working alongside several primary schools across Sheffield and Rotherham to recruit Graduate Primary Teaching Assistants for a long-term, full-time roles starting in September 2026.

These opportunities are ideal for graduates passionate about education and eager to gain invaluable school-based experience before progressing into teacher training or a wider career within education.

Graduate Primary Teaching Assistant – The Role

As a Graduate Primary Teaching Assistant, you will work closely with experienced class teachers to support pupils across EYFS, Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2.

Your responsibilities may include:

• Supporting pupils on a 1:1 basis and in small groups
• Delivering targeted literacy and numeracy interventions
• Providing classroom support during lessons and activities
• Assisting teachers with lesson preparation and learning resources
• Supporting children with additional learning needs where required

This is a highly rewarding role where you will quickly become an important part of school life and make a genuine impact on pupils' academic progress and personal development.

Who We're Looking For

We are particularly keen to hear from graduates who have achieved a 2:1 degree or above in:

• Core Subjects (English, Maths or Science)
• Psychology
• Education and Early Years Studies
• Other related academic subjects

Successful candidates will demonstrate:

• A genuine passion for working with children
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• Patience, empathy, and a nurturing approach
• A desire to pursue a career within education

Previous experience working with children is beneficial but not essential.

KPi Education

KPi Education specialises in graduate recruitment for the education sector. We support graduates interested in pursuing long term careers within the education sector, whether that be as a teacher or similar role. All roles are full-time and long term temporary or permanent – we do not offer day-to-day supply.

If you are interested in working as a Graduate Primary Teaching Assistant role for the 2026/2027 academic year and beyond, get in touch today.

Click Apply and send your CV to James at KPi Education today.
