Permanent, Term Time Only
Maple Grove is a specialist setting for learners with autism.

At Maple Grove, everything we do revolves around the individual needs of each child attending our school, with the aim that every learner is able to fulfil their potential.


Along with our rich and varied curriculum, we focus on developing core life skills such as communication and social ability, sensory processing, and emotional regulation; every pupil develops the essential capabilities they need to be as independent as possible when they leave school.


We are situated in Hoole, Chester, with the school set within a beautiful, historic building that has been completely refurbished and redesigned to the highest standard.


The aim of the site is to provide enough support to unlock each child's potential so they can live fulfilling and productive lives.

We provide young people with as much freedom as possible in a safe and supervised environment.

This is achievable due to the dedication and support from a range of employed professionals who are passionate, reliable, and understanding.


The opportunity
Enjoy a rewarding education career and have a real impact on children and young people's lives. Join an amazing team creating supportive, nurturing environments where our pupils achieve far more than they ever expected.


As a Teaching Assistant, you will connect directly with the brilliant children and young people we care for, helping to make sure they get the very best from their education.

Each individual has a diagnosis of Autism and may have additional needs. They have so much potential, and they will rely on you to guide their learning journeys bespoke to them.

You will help prepare learning materials and run classroom activities, with plenty of hands-on experience and some supervision too.

You will take responsibility for their emotional and physical needs, supporting them to develop as individuals and engage with the world.


You will face challenges and overcome them as you flourish and thrive, sharing your skills and learning from others as your career takes you as high as you always dreamed you could go.


Every day will be different, but you will have all the support you need, with lots of skills and experience to draw on along with valuable advice and guidance too.


Who we are looking for


You will be adaptable and ready to work in a variety of classroom roles, both indoors and outside according to individual need.

Taking a responsive and caring approach, you may be running classroom activities, leading outdoor experiences or supervising children as they explore further afield.
