Teaching Assistant (permanent/1 year fixed term)

We are looking for a number of enthusiastic and lively teaching assistants to work with pupils who have physical and communication difficulties.  The roles involve support in the classroom and a high level of physical work and personal care of pupils.  The posts may be based within our primary or secondary departments.

We have purpose designed buildings co-located with mainstream settings and are a very successful school, graded as “outstanding” by Ofsted. High expectations, a positive attitude and team work are central to the success of the school.  Learn more about us by visiting our website:  www.cloudesley.islington.sch.uk

Candidates must have English and Maths GCSE Grade C or equivalent.  Successful short-listed candidates will be asked to provide proof of these qualifications at interview or be prepared to sit an equivalency test during their probationary period.  References will be requested during the shortlisting process, therefore it is imperative that candidates approach their referees in advance and provide up to date contact details.  We will not shortlist if we are unable to obtain references. 

Visits to the school are actively encouraged.  To arrange a visit or to discuss the posts further, please contact Sarah Kelly (Business Manager) on 020 7704 8127 or email sarah.kelly@cloudesley.islington.sch.uk
