Teaching Assistant

Teaching Assistants - There is another way!

• Are you an outstanding teaching assistant who feels stifled by the mainstream system?
• Are you an exceptional, creative assistant who really wants to make a difference every day to the lives of the most vulnerable children?
• Do you want to be driven by a sense of moral purpose rather than data?
•  Do you want high quality professional development and support?
• Do you want to support small classes where getting to know the children really well is a priority and a pleasure?
• Or work one on one with pupils to improve their behaviour, education and opportunity to succeed?
• Do you want to work with highly supportive colleagues who share your values and ethos?
• Do you want to work in an organisation that supports career progression and has opportunities beyond your own school?
• Do you want to be involved in educational research and development?
• Do plans to move to new-build accommodation excite you?

If the answer to these questions is yes, then why not come and work for an organisation who truly believes that there is another way?
