The Headteacher and governors of Little Leigh Primary School wish to appoint a motivated, committed and highly effective teaching assistant to support the learning and the needs of our children.
We are looking to appoint a practitioner who has had experience of supporting children in Key Stage 1 and/or Reception. The successful candidate would preferably have good knowledge of early reading and phonics. Ideally, the successful applicant would also be able to provide whole class cover on an occasional/ad-hoc basis (this would be paid at the higher rate of Grade 6) – however, this is open to discussion for the right candidate.
This vacancy is for 32.5 hours p/w, following the working pattern of Monday – Friday 8.30am – 3:30pm. The vacancy is of a temporary nature to begin with, with a view to permanency following the completion of a successful probation period.
We offer a creative, inclusive school with happy children who want to learn; a superb team of energetic staff who work extremely hard and exciting opportunities for continuing professional development.
Little Leigh Primary School places the highest priority on the safeguarding of children; all applicants will follow a stringent vetting and induction process. Any offer of employment will be subject to a DBS check and receipt of satisfactory references.
You are very welcome to come and look around the school. Please email [email protected] or phone 01270 360035 to arrange a mutually convenient time.
Please include a letter of application outlining your experience of supporting children and your suitability for the post.
Closing date for receipt of applications is: Monday 13th February noon.
Candidates will be invited to interview on Thursday 16th February.
