Bournemouth, United Kingdom BCP Council Full time

Ferndown First School is part of the Castleman Academy Trust - a Trust which prides itself on putting children first, always and puts its values of Respect, Independence, Creativity and Inclusion at the heart of everything we do.

It is the staff in our academies who make our schools vibrant places of learning - who do all they can to make sure our children become confident individuals, successful learners and responsible citizens. Our staff want to make a real difference to the lives of the children they work with and are learners themselves who relish professional development opportunities.

Working in a Castleman Academy Trust school, you will be working with other forward thinkers who see possibilities and are optimistic. You will have the support of like-minded colleagues and together we will ensure everyone has a great work life balance. Being part of the Castleman Academy Trust means there are a whole host of opportunities for you to develop and flourish.

We are looking to appoint several experienced Teaching Assistants, with a proven track record to support children who have some social and emotional behavioural needs, speech and language difficulties and some social communication needs across the school.

The role will require you to work closely with the SENCO and class teachers, supporting pupils in either 1:1 situations or small groups both in and outside the classroom. Experience in supporting children with regulation difficulties would be an advantage.

You will need to be kind, patient and experienced at creating positive relationships. The ability to be flexible and enthusiastic, with excellent interpersonal and communication skills and the ability to engage learners is also desirable.

The successful applicants will have an NVQ Level 3 in the field of Teaching and Learning, or equivalent and will be able to demonstrate a suitable level of English and maths skills, equivalent to GCSE standard, which will be assessed at interview.

The role will be varied and you could also be deployed to support children in class, small groups and on an individual basis, depending on pupil need. You will also be required to provide some support at lunchtimes.

We offer:
 A thriving, successful school
 Motivated and well-behaved pupils
 Highly professional training and support to ensure excellent career development
 Supportive colleagues
 A committed team of staff and Governors
 Free access to the Employee Assistance Programme
 Cycle to Work Scheme.

Safeguarding

The Castleman Academy Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

An online check will also be conducted on all shortlisted applicants. This check will form part of a safeguarding check, and the search will purely be based on whether an individual is suitable to work with children. As care must be taken to avoid unconscious bias and any risk of discrimination, a person who will not be on the appointment panel will conduct the search and will only share information if and when findings are relevant and of concern.

This role is UK based and your Right to Work will need to be established as part of the appointment process

**Interviews will be held on Thursday 25th May 2023.
