Permanent

VENERABLE BEDE CE ACADEMY

NJC SCP 12- 17 £26,421 - £28,770 FTE

37 hours per week, term time only + 5 inset days

We are looking for a hardworking and organised Higher Level Teaching Assistant (HLTA), who will join a supportive English department that seeks to ensure all pupils make the progress of which they are capable.

The role entails a range of different aspects designed to best help our pupils. The successful candidate will work in lessons to assist learners in accessing all elements of the English curriculum, collaborating closely with a talented teaching team to support pupil understanding. Having a good knowledge of the English curriculum and how to adapt materials to support learning would be beneficial.

The HLTA will also work closely with our Literacy lead to organise, plan and deliver a range of reading interventions before, during or after the school day. The successful candidate must therefore have the presence and confidence to work independently with small groups of pupils. Good I.T. skills would also be advantageous, as the monitoring and tracking of the impact of these interventions is a vital aspect of the role.

If you want to help pupils of all abilities to learn as effectively and self-sufficiently as possible, we would welcome your application.

The successful candidate should have:

• Experience of working in a Secondary School setting
• Good understanding of the National Curriculum
• Excellent communication skills
• A positive attitude, flexibility and adaptability
• Ability to engage and deliver lessons under the guidance of a teacher/colleagues
• Proven impact on attainment and achievement through Quality First Teaching and Targeted Intervention
• High expectations
• A supportive working environment that puts people at the heart of the organisation.
• Continuous professional development, including the opportunity to undertake related qualifications.
• National Terms and Conditions of Employment.
• Local Government Pension Scheme
• The opportunity to work as part of a growing Trust and shape this role.
