Teaching Assistant Wanted - Alternative Provision in...

Teaching Assistant – Full Time/Part Time – ASAP Start

  • Teaching assistant required to support pupils aged 5 to 16
  • Work within an alternative provision supporting children with learning and behavioural challenges
  • Join a caring and inclusive school committed to giving pupils a second chance to succeed

We are seeking a compassionate and dedicated Teaching Assistant to join a supportive and nurturing alternative provision. The role involves working closely with pupils who have experienced difficulties in mainstream education, supporting their academic, social, and emotional development.

This is an excellent opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of young people by providing tailored support to help them overcome barriers to learning.

The successful candidate will be part of a team that puts relationships first, understands behaviour as communication, and fosters trust, belonging, and resilience among its students.

Key Information:

  • Work with pupils aged 5 to 16 with diverse learning and behavioural needs
  • Support the inclusion and academic progress of pupils who have struggled in mainstream settings
  • Contribute to a safe, consistent, and caring learning environment
  • Help pupils develop resilience and prepare for adult life
  • Be part of a team recognised for outstanding pupil behaviour and development

Candidate Requirements:

  • Passion for supporting children’s learning and personal growth
  • Patience, empathy, and strong communication skills
  • Ability to work effectively within a team and adapt to varied pupil needs
  • Previous experience in education or working with children is advantageous but not essential
  • A passion for sport

If you are interested in this rewarding role, please send your CV as soon as possible, and we will be in touch for a follow-up call.
