LEARNING SUPPORT OPPORTUNITY FOR GRADUATE/NON-GRADUATE IN SW LONDON

Do you want to make a real difference to children’s lives? Can you spark interest in the students at our school for the subjects they are learning?

Ernest Bevin College, whose students are aged between 11-19, is a vibrant and a truly inclusive all boys college with a mixed sixth form.  Based in Tooting, South West London, our college takes pride in having an exceptional level of pastoral care where all staff are dedicated to giving each and every student both a quality learning experience and the life skills that opens doors to any career path they wish to tread in the future.

Our students, governors and staff are now seeking to appoint an enthusiastic and committed graduate/ non-graduate to work as a Learning Support Assistant focusing on students with EAL. 

We will offer you the support you need to progress in your career and many of our LSAs go on to embark on QTS training and become qualified teachers.

This is a hugely rewarding opportunity will involve the following:
