Pay details: H1 pay scale dependent on experience (pro rata)

Start date: 3rd September 2025

Are you looking to work in a caring, supportive primary school? Are you committed and passionate about making a difference to the lives of children with SEND?

At St Michael’s, we are seeking to appoint a teaching assistant for 1:1 SEND support mainly based on supporting the individual needs for an individual child who will be in our Year 3 class for a fixed term contract working 10am to 3pm, term time only. We are looking for someone with excellent learning support skills and empathy, who meets our children's needs with an enthusiastic and nurturing approach, has high expectations of learning and is willing to support our church ethos.

In return, we can offer you a welcoming, dedicated staff team, engaged parents and supportive governors. We follow a growth mindset approach to developing each child and offer an incredibly diverse and rich curriculum in which each child can excel. Our children are incredibly happy at school and hugely enjoy learning. At our school, we take a holistic approach to the education of our children and during their time with us they make excellent academic progress.

But the outcomes we achieve are much more far reaching than this; we also place great emphasis on developing the whole child through focusing on good manners, honesty, showing respect, cooperation and collaboration, taking responsibility for themselves and others, doing the right thing, being kind and generally being good people and good citizens. St.Michaels is committed to providing an all-round excellent primary education which is rooted in such fundamental British values as: democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs. This is all done in keeping with the school's distinctive Christian character. It is wonderful to see our children flourishing and thriving during their time at school. We have a highly skilled and cohesive staff team who always put our children first and strive for excellence in everything they do. We have a positive, ‘growth mindset’ attitude and adopt a solution-focused approach to overcome obstacles and enable all children and adults to achieve their full potential. We encourage children to be confident, independent learners, who understand that achieving success requires effort, practice and perseverance and that making mistakes is an essential part of the learning process. As a school we are forward thinking and are always looking for ways to improve through training, learning from best practice, partnership working and constantly reflecting on what we do as we improve child outcomes. Our focus is on meeting the individual needs of every child to ensure they develop the skills they need to reach their full potential and be ready for secondary school. We encourage parents / carers to be involved in their children’s learning as much as possible, and to work in partnership with us for the benefit of their children. Visitors often comment on the positive atmosphere in the school and particularly how well-behaved, happy, and hard-working our children are. Being a church school, means any decision made comes from a place of love for the whole child. We are a school for families with a Christian faith, different faiths and also those with no faith who encourage our children to be outward looking but reflective, knowledgeable and curious. If you would like to pay a visit the school then please do not hesitate to contact the school office on 01279652607 or email at [e-mail]. This school is committed to safeguarding chidlren and young people. All post holders are subject to a satisfactory Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check.
