Your Role

Our wonderful school is excited to be looking for a new team member to join us in our Key Stage 1 team at Warren Wood Primary School.

Your role in the first instance will be to support children across Key Stage 1 both in the classroom, in small groups to access the broad and balanced curriculum on offer and in some cases to support pupils with one to one learning.

About You

You should have a good understanding of ‘adaptive teaching’ and the vital role played by additional adults to facilitate this. You will have outstanding communication skills; be flexible and effective in the way you work with children; have excellent interpersonal skills, including a natural empathy with children, including those with additional needs and a knowledge of emotional regulation; and be resilient and enthusiastic in your approach to children’s learning.

You will also need to be able to communicate clearly with other professionals across the school, including providing purposeful feedback on children’s learning and wellbeing.

Previous experience of working with KS1 pupils is essential.

A relevant Level 2/3 qualification in Childcare, Education or that of a TA would be advantageous but is not essential.

We will offer you a warm welcome, support and training to enable you to become part of the team. You will also achieve immense job satisfaction as you make a significant difference to the educational development of children within our Warren Wood family.
