Higher Level Teaching Assistant (HLTA)

The New School was formed in 2020 and our mission is to positively change the way we educate our children in the UK.

We are currently recruiting for two Higher Level Teaching Assistants. These will be mainly working within either the Primary or Secondary age groups but as an all-through school, at times you might find yourself working across the whole range.

We are dedicated to providing a nurturing and inclusive environment where every young person can thrive. We believe in embracing principles that prioritise the well-being and development of our students and staff and as an attachment and trauma-informed school, we are committed to social justice and fostering a safe space for growth.

Compensation for this position aligns with our pay-rates, complemented by an array of invaluable perks. These include our supportive team ethos, active participation in shaping organisational policies through our sociocratic framework, and the flexibility of enjoying five paid holidays during term time. Additional benefits are complimentary lunches and access to an employees assistance scheme for health and wellbeing.
