Launch Your Career in Education at One of Manchester's Most Ambitious Secondary Schools
A thriving secondary school in the M40 area is seeking an enthusiastic Graduate Teaching Assistant to join its dedicated support team. Recruiting on behalf of the school, we're looking for talented graduates who want to gain meaningful classroom experience while making a genuine difference to the lives of young people.

This is far more than a traditional support role. You'll become an integral part of the school community, working alongside experienced teachers, supporting students academically and pastorally, and developing the skills needed for a successful future in education.

Whether your long-term goal is teaching, educational psychology, youth work, or another child-focused profession, this role provides an excellent foundation.

Your Day-to-Day Responsibilities

* Supporting students across a range of subjects and year groups
* Delivering targeted intervention sessions to boost attainment
* Working with pupils who require additional academic support
* Building positive relationships that encourage engagement and confidence
* Assisting teachers with lesson preparation and classroom delivery
* Supporting behaviour management and promoting a positive learning culture
* Helping students prepare for assessments and examinations

We're Interested in Hearing From

* Graduates with a 2:1 or above in any subject area
* Individuals considering a future career in teaching
* Candidates with strong communication and interpersonal skills
* Graduates with tutoring, mentoring, coaching, youth work or volunteering experience
* Positive, resilient and motivated individuals who enjoy working with young people

Why This Opportunity Stands Out
The school has built a reputation for developing graduate talent and offers exceptional support to those entering the education sector. You'll work within a collaborative environment where professional growth is actively encouraged and achievements are recognised.

Benefits Include

* £25,000 - £28,000 annual salary
* Full-time, term-time friendly working pattern
* Outstanding training and development opportunities
* Dedicated mentor and leadership support
* Access to teacher training pathways
* Staff wellbeing programme
* Modern facilities and learning resources
* Pension scheme
* Free on-site parking
* Regular staff social and appreciation events
* Excellent transport links across Greater Manchester

This is an ideal opportunity for a graduate who wants to gain valuable school-based experience while contributing to a high-achieving and supportive secondary school environment.

Applications are encouraged from graduates ready to take the first step towards a rewarding career in education.
