PP Learning Support Assistant

The Brookvale Groby Learning Campus is a highly successful 11-19 educational organisation created from the integration of two schools on the same site.  Brookvale High School is an ‘outstanding’ 11-14 school and Groby Community College is a 14-19 upper school graded ‘good with outstanding features’ in its last Ofsted.  Together, the campus meets the educational needs of 1,600 students with nearly 400 at Post 16, and we became a Multi Academy trust together at the beginning of April this year.  

We have a strong ethos of valuing everyone and achieving excellence for all.  We set very high standards for our students and ourselves, we work hard, we look after each other, and we are committed to professional learning for all staff. As a consequence the motto we use on a daily basis with our young people is work hard, be kind which we feel symbolises the culture we aim to create on campus.

We are looking for two Pupil Premium Learning Support Assistants to support, motivate and challenge students who receive additional funding from the Pupil Premium grant.  

The Learning Support Assistants will directly support those students, both inside and outside the classroom, who need help to overcome barriers to learning in order to achieve their full potential.  Whilst previous experience would be an advantage, this post would also suit graduates who may be considering a career in teaching.   

The successful candidates will work 35 hours per week, 8.00am to 3.30pm Monday to Friday,  with ½ hour for lunch (unpaid).

All the documents to support this vacancy can be found on www.grobycoll.com or www.brookvalehighschool.co.uk and if you would like to visit our campus then please contact Elaine Freeman who will organise this.

We look forward to hearing from you.
