Learning Assistant

Opening in August to Early Years, Jataka’s dynamic approach includes a unique emphasis on integrating and revitalising Asian wisdom traditions, and brings the Middle Way Educations's early years and primary education program from Woodstock, NY, to the creative capital of Southeast Asia.

The Jataka School seeks to appoint an experienced Learning Assistant in the Early Years department, serving students aged 3 to 5. The Jataka School values the essential role of Learning Assistants in students' well-being and academic success.

A key member of the teaching team, the Learning Assistant supports student learning in class and beyond. They assist class teachers to provide planning, instructional delivery, and learning of the highest standards. With regard to the learning environment, Learning Assistants play a key role in classroom set-up and resourcing to provide a high-quality, age-appropriate, and engaging learning environment. In our play-based model, Learning Assistants support children’s progress and the consolidation of skills by planning in the moment.

We are looking to recruit an LA with strong proficiency in Thai, English, and Mandarin to join our founding team. Our founding team members are passionate educators who value professional and personal growth; if this sounds like you, we look forward to hearing from you.
