Hertfordshire, United Kingdom Flexzo Teach Full time

About the Company Flexzo Teach is a recruitment & SCR platform that lets schools book you directly for classroom support, long-term roles and temporary/permanent positions without going through a traditional agency model.

We already work with pilot schools in areas like Hertfordshire, and we’re now building local talent pools so we can switch more schools on in each area. To bring more schools on board where you live, we first need great Teaching Assistants pre-registering to our platform and it only takes a copy of your CV...

When you sign up, you make it possible for us to go to schools in your area and say: “You don’t need to rely on agencies, you can book these support staff directly through Flexzo Teach, without an agency or the additional charges that come with the current agency recruitment model.”

We’re looking for Teaching Assistants who want:
Flexible work with local schools
Direct bookings (no agency representative) schools contact you via the platform
Instead, schools see your profile, your experience and your rates, and decide to book you directly with no middleman interference and full transparency.


Depending on the school and setting, your responsibilities may include:
Working with pupils 1:1 or in small groups to reinforce learning
Providing additional support for pupils with SEND or additional needs
Helping to prepare resources and keep learning spaces organised
Following safeguarding and child protection procedures at all times
Communicating clearly with school staff before, during and after placements


Experience working as a Teaching Assistant, Learning Support Assistant or similar classroom-based role (school, tutoring or youth work experience considered)
Understanding of the UK school environment and safeguarding expectations
Enhanced DBS (or willingness to obtain) and up-to-date safeguarding awareness


Ability to build positive relationships with pupils and staff
Commitment to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people


Experience across different key stages (EYFS, KS1, KS2 and/or secondary)
Experience supporting pupils with SEND, EAL or additional needs
Work history in a range of school types (e.g. mainstream, academies, SEN settings, PRUs)
Pay Range and Compensation
You set your own day rate/hourly rate within the Flexzo Teach platform, and you will speak with an advisor who can consult with you on the best rate for your experience and qualifications. Schools can see your rates, availability and experience and choose to book you directly.


Flexzo Teach is committed to diversity, equity and inclusion. We welcome applications from candidates of all backgrounds and do not discriminate on the basis of age, disability, gender identity, marital status, race, religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation.


Ready to Shape Your Own TA Work?
If you’re an experienced Teaching Assistant or have strong relevant experience and want to move into a TA role with more control, more flexibility and direct relationships with schools, pre-register today so you can be contacted directly by education settings in your local area, without a third-party representative.
