The Governors are looking to appoint dedicated and confident staff to join our teaching support team. Teaching Assistants, are also part of a tutor group team and support their pupils across the curriculum. They are an absolutely vital part of our staff team.
The current posts are to initially support across the secondary phase. We are looking for candidates who have the knowledge and skills to support the learning of pupils across the curriculum and are confident to support learners working generally between Year 3 and Year 7 Age Related Expectations (within the secondary phase). However, a number of our pupils do study GCSEs at KS4 as well as a range of other accreditations. In carrying out their duties and responsibilities effectively, teaching support staff will provide high quality support for teachers, the curriculum and the school.
At Alderman Knight, it is important to us that we enable our staff to work to their strengths. However, it is also important to us that our staff feel confident supporting all our young people. Although we have 4 phases across the school – KS2, KS3, KS4 and Post 16, we are one school and we promote a community feel, and all phases, have opportunities to interact and work together. Therefore, although this role is to support in our secondary phase, we provide opportunities to grow and develop staff knowledge and skills, including working in different key stages and provision of high quality CPD.
So, if you are passionate about supporting young people with a range of additional needs, and are looking for a new, exciting and immensely rewarding role, please have a look at what we can offer – we might just be that next step in your career, that you are looking for!
This school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and expects all staff, and volunteers, to share the same commitment. This position is subject to an enhanced DBS check.
