EYFS Teaching Assistant

Level 3 Teaching Assistant

Your role as an EYFS Teaching Assistant will be centred around the school's unique and innovative ethos. You will be spending allocated time within the classroom as an EYFS TA, but will also provide hours of 1:1 tuition and learning time in the classroom's intervention area. Whilst a particular focus will surround attainment levels with the child, your role is based on nurturing and behaviour provision on a more social & emotional level - and will include working closely with the SENCO and the school's fabulous senior leadership group!

This Primary School is an inclusive school, exuding a warmth and generosity of spirit that comes from their children and diverse school community. The school is set within it's own Campus, which includes a state of-the-art learning environment for children and adults where the EYFS Teaching Assistant would be working. With approximately 400 children, including an outstanding centre for children with autism - the school provides an exceptional atmosphere for future teachers, psychology graduates and SEN specialists.

In 2018 OFSTED judged both areas of provision as ‘Good’ in all categories. More recently, the school have been excited to enhance their offer of a new centre for two year old's, as well as the most recent completion of their STEM Lab.

The school is a UNICEF Rights Respecting School. Their culture revolves around ‘Who do you want to be?’ - preparing children with the qualities needed in life to be successful and happy. They have a strong focus on well-being, fitness and accessing the rights that they are all entitled to. This is on top of their high expectations for learning and skill development across all curriculum subjects. They are even holding culture tours to show off their ethos and to give prospective parents/carers an opportunity to see their school environment!

• Have experience providing specialist support to children in Early Years
• Have experience working 1:1 and in small groups
