Devon, United Kingdom Devon County Council Full time

The Devon Moors Federation is a well-established network of eight maintained educational institutions. Our federation comprises Clyst Hydon, Copplestone, Filleigh, Kilmington, Lympstone, Shute, Spreyton, and Upottery Primary Schools. We are also affiliated with the United Schools Learning Partnership Co-Operative Trust.

At Copplestone Primary School, which serves 146 students, we are seeking to appoint a dedicated and compassionate Educational Support Assistant to join our committed team. This role is essential for providing tailored support to a child in Key Stage 2 with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) and assisting small groups of students across various key stages. The position requires engagement both inside and outside the classroom, including some supervision during break times. A genuine passion for fostering children's learning and development, along with the ability to cultivate positive relationships, is essential. Strong literacy, numeracy, and communication skills are also required.

Position 1 - This role entails 18 hours and 30 minutes of work per week for 39 weeks annually, specifically on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. It is a fixed-term position linked to SEND funding for a student within the school, contingent upon the child's continued attendance and funding.

Position 2 - Additionally, we are looking for an After School Club Leader for our popular on-site After School Club on Wednesdays, amounting to 2 hours and 10 minutes weekly. This position is available for 38 weeks each year.

While one individual may fulfill both roles, applicants should specify which position they are applying for if interested in only one.

We encourage visits to our school. Interested candidates should contact the school office to arrange a visit.

The Devon Moors Federation is dedicated to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and vulnerable adults. We expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
This role necessitates a DBS disclosure and the ability to communicate fluently in English.
Pre-recruitment checks may include online searches.

The Devon Moors Federation is an equal opportunity employer.

All applicants must be eligible to work in the UK without restrictions, as we cannot provide sponsorship or work visas. Proof of Right to Work will be required during the interview process.
