Slough and Eton has an exciting opportunity for a support assistant to join our excellent English as an Additional Language (EAL) team to support our EAL students across the curriculum. The successful applicant will be a specialist LSA for EAL students and will provide support so they can achieve their very best. Over 60% of our students have English as an additional language and team benefits from great leadership from its Curriculum Leader.

This position involves supporting in class as well as with small groups of students and sometimes 1:1. You will be expected to support students across Years 7 – 13. We think this is a great opportunity for someone interested in a career in teaching in the future and are keen to provide training to facilitate that for the right candidate. 

Experience or qualifications in working with EAL students is desirable but not essential as we will provide the necessary training. Candidates who have TEFL training or who are bilingual/multi-lingual would be at an advantage. In all cases a Level 2 qualification in both Maths and English is essential and Level 3/degree qualifications hugely desirable.

Slough and Eton is a great school on the outskirts of Slough, which serves the Chalvey community and we are relentlessly focused on ensuring great teaching, learning and experiences are at the core of what we do. It’s an exciting time for us and our students are a pleasure to work with.
