EYFS Teaching Assistant

About Us

East Lane Primary School is housed in a new and purpose-built £14 million building with exceptional resources and is located adjacent to Wembley High. This provides our children with an ‘all-through’ experience of outstanding schools. East Lane Primary School is a 3 form-entry school and since September 2020 we have had pupils from Reception through to Year 6. Our results to date for Early Years, Phonics, KS1 and KS2 have been amongst the highest in Brent and significantly above the national averages, and we are looking to continue our success as the school expands.

The Role

We are looking for an enthusiastic, passionate teaching assistant with experience in EYFS who will inspire our pupils to succeed.  In the EYFS at ELPS, the children thrive as a result of everyone’s commitment to ensuring that all children achieve their very best; through challenging work and high expectations, most of our pupils achieve beyond expectations. Learning opportunities are of the highest quality and teachers are dedicated to providing stimulating, engaging and purposeful experiences for our children to support them in becoming lifelong learners. Teachers and teaching assistants have high expectations of attitudes towards learning and behaviour which allow all children the opportunity to learn, work hard and succeed in a calm, safe learning environment. Teachers and teaching assistants work collaboratively and share good practice to plan, prepare and provide an exceptional learning experience for our pupils. As children progress throughout the year, we continue to build on this work as pupils gain fluency in the core learning areas and transition to a more formal learning environment. 

Why Join Us?

We welcome applications from those with experience in the EYFS in a school or nursery setting. All staff at East Lane Primary School receive a comprehensive, structured training programme, delivered by highly trained mentors and bespoke to the individual’s needs. If you are keen to develop as an outstanding teaching assistant, enjoy sharing best practice with a community of dedicated peers and believe that all pupils can and should succeed, we would love to hear from you.
