  • The governing body and leaders prioritize pupils' holistic development to prepare them for modern life in Britain - Ofsted October 2022.
  • Praise for the strong career, advice, and guidance program at the school - Ofsted October 2022.

St John Bosco College is seeking to hire a capable, highly motivated, enthusiastic, and innovative Learning Support Assistant (LSA) to join our dedicated team. Our ethos revolves around the belief that 'true education is nurtured by confidence and love'.

  • We seek individuals dedicated to maintaining high standards and enhancing academic achievement for all students with special educational needs.
  • The ideal candidate will lead in fostering students' literacy and communication skills, contributing to our inclusive school's supportive environment.

The primary duties of the LSA involve providing support to SEN students, both individually and in small groups within the mainstream classroom. This includes promoting independent learning, social skills, and emotional regulation.

We welcome applications from candidates with strong interpersonal skills and experience in assisting young individuals with Autism. While prior experience with secondary school students with SEN is beneficial, it is not mandatory.

Essential requirements include proficiency in literacy and numeracy, a reliable and committed demeanor, excellent communication skills, and a patient, empathetic nature.

Our institution prioritizes continuous professional growth, offering career advancement opportunities through regular training sessions, including access to NVQ qualifications for Teaching Assistants.

St John Bosco College received a 'good' rating from Ofsted in October 2022 and an 'outstanding' accolade from the Archdiocese of Southwark in May 2019. Situated in Battersea, our Roman Catholic, Salesian school strives to empower young individuals to realize their full potential, fostering confidence and independence.

Note: Completed applications should be submitted to the school via email or post. CVs will not be considered.

Important: To complete the application form on an Apple Mac, please utilize 'Adobe Acrobat Reader' instead of the 'Preview' application due to compatibility issues.

Early applications are encouraged as we may fill the position before the deadline if a suitable candidate is found.

We prioritize the safety and well-being of children, young people, and vulnerable adults and expect all team members to uphold this commitment.

Closing date: 12:00, Monday 20 May 2024
