What will this look like for you?

At North Ridge, our pupils are truly one-of-a-kind. Each pupil brings their own unique blend of strengths, challenges, and personality. Our pupils have a wide range of learning and associated special educational needs. It’s this diversity that makes our school such a vibrant and special place.

As a Teaching Assistant at North Ridge, you’ll be an essential part of a close-knit class group working with around 10–12 pupils. You’ll support them across all lessons and daily activities. You will support them not just academically, but in helping them grow in confidence, independence, and social skills tailored to their individual needs.

Your role will be at the heart of their journey. You’ll help shape their future, preparing them for life beyond school so they can thrive, contribute, and lead happy, fulfilled lives within their communities.
