Working in a large mainstream secondary school, the role would involve supporting students across KS3 and KS4, who have Special Educational Needs and requirements, who need that bit of extra help within a classroom environment.

The pay rate for this role starts from £12- £14 per hour, based on experience, and the school are looking to offer a permanent role to the right candidate. As a teaching assistant, you will be expected to work 1:1 to help with daily activities and routines, liaise with their class teachers and support their academic studies, behaviour and SEMH. This role will support children within their classroom environment within a mainstream secondary school. This is a fantastic and rewarding opportunity to help support pupils who need extra guidance.
