Broadway First School is looking to add to its highly committed Key Stage 1 team. We are seeking a friendly, dedicated and well-presented teaching assistant that has the drive to impact children positively.

We are looking for a teaching assistant to support the progress of children through targeted 1:1 support, individual and group interventions and other duties as directed by the class teacher. The candidate may already hold a relevant teaching assistant qualification, but the option to access a funded apprenticeship scheme is also open to consideration for exceptional candidates.

As a Teaching Assistant, you will need to work flexibly alongside class teachers and other staff to adapt and support learning. You will have experience of working independently and have the potential to deliver intervention programmes and develop an understanding of the importance of record keeping and evidencing progress through assessment. You will demonstrate the patience and passion to work with children displaying a variety of academic and emotional needs.

Many of our staff manage multiple roles and the option to provide additional hours to cover lunch supervision is something we are keen to implement. Candidates that can fulfil this option will be of great interest to us.

Broadway First School is a safe, happy and nurturing environment where we pride ourselves on giving the best we can to all our pupils to mirror our motto: Inspire, Challenge, Achieve. We have truly wonderful children at our school and are fortunate to benefit from superb outdoor space. We will seek to enhance your skills and experiences through support and relevant training.

The candidate must:

• Be dedicated to working as part of a team, as well as being able to work under their own initiative.
• Have a good level of English and Maths skills evidenced by suitable qualifications.
• Be highly committed to improving learning for our children.
• Be caring, patient and supportive with a positive attitude.
• Ability to encourage participation and give feedback to pupils
• Have excellent communication skills with children and adults.
• Have experience of working with children, ideally in a school setting.

We will offer:

• A caring, supportive team dedicated to meeting the needs of our children.
• A supportive and experienced school team.
• The opportunity to gain a TA qualification if required.
• Fantastic children that are keen to learn.
