Radipole Primary School would like to appoint a teaching assistant to join our friendly and talented team on a fixed term basis, with the possibility of the contract being extended for a suitably qualified or experienced candidate.

A vacancy has arisen for us to recruit an enthusiastic, caring and adaptable teaching assistant to work within KS2.

There will be a requirement within this role to work with children on a 1:1 basis.

Our school is set to achieve some amazing things and we are looking for an additional colleague who can nurture, motivate and enable children to achieve highly: someone who will inspire children, parents and colleagues alike to delight in learning.

The successful candidates will be able to demonstrate:

real energy and enthusiasm for learning; high expectations for all pupils; the greatest professional warmth, care and respect for the children in our care; a commitment to working closely with colleagues to share and develop skills and expertise;

exceptionally caring, polite and well-behaved children with a love of learning; a highly experienced, talented, supportive and approachable team of colleagues; a shared determination to inspire children to learn; a leadership team ready to support you fully in your professional development; a well-resourced and modern learning environment in a beautiful natural setting; a governing body dedicated to the wellbeing of the children, families and staff as well as to the success of the school.

Applications from both qualified teaching assistants and those wishing to gain NVQ qualification are welcome. Radipole is a wonderful and truly exciting place to work. As well as excellently resourced classrooms and facilities such as library, ICT suite and swimming pool, we have a huge nature reserve on site, which the children use every week. The muddy wellies outside every classroom tell the story of what we are aiming to achieve for our children’s health and wellbeing.

We will use the person specification for the post to shortlist applications. When applying, please address each of the criteria to ensure we can invite you to interview.

Radipole Primary School values the diversity of our workforce and welcomes applications from all sectors of the community.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people; this is a commitment which we expect all staff and volunteers to share.
