Working closely with class teachers from EYFS to lower Key Stage 2, you will help create a caring and stimulating environment. You will bridge the gap between academic support and pastoral care, ensuring every pupil, including those with individual learning needs, feels confident, safe, and inspired to succeed.

In return, we offer a rewarding environment, as well as a number of notable benefits such as substantially reduced school fees at King Edward’s and Barrow Hills, free school lunches, free on-site parking, use of our schools’ gym and pool facilities & competitive rates of pay.
