Position: Full-Time Teaching Assistant (Key Stage 1)
Location: Primary School, Accrington
Start Date: November 2024
Contract: Until July 2025

We are seeking a dedicated and adaptable Teaching Assistant to join our primary school in Accrington. This full-time position will involve working closely with children in Key Stage 1, offering classroom support and providing targeted interventions for those with additional learning needs. You will play a key role in assisting the class teacher with daily activities, helping to create a positive and engaging learning environment for all pupils.

A significant part of your role will also involve working outside of the classroom, providing additional support to children who may require more focused attention. This could include working 1:1 with pupils or in small groups to deliver tailored interventions that help them reach their full potential.

In return, we offer a welcoming and supportive school environment where you will have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on children’s lives. There will be plenty of opportunities for professional development and training, along with a competitive salary based on experience and qualifications.
