At Vane Road Primary School, everything we do is centred entirely on our pupils. We create educational opportunities and experiences that inspire and excite our children. Our staff are dedicated, highly skilled professionals who go above and beyond to create the education our children deserve.
We are looking to recruit an excellent, suitably qualified, enthusiastic and highly motivated Higher Level Teaching Assistant to take a leading role within our inclusive and aspirational school. You would be part of our wider family of schools within Lingfield Education Trust and have access to career development that comes from this.
The successful applicant must demonstrate:

- Ability to lead and organise support staff
- Excellent communication and team working skills
- Excellent organisational skills

If this sounds like you and a role that you would enjoy, please look carefully at the following materials and complete the application form.
The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff to share this commitment. The post is subject to a successful DBS clearance (certificate of disclosure form from the Disclosure and Barring Service). Pre-employment checks including an online and social media search (KCSIE), will be undertaken before an appointment is confirmed.
The post will be based in Vane Road Primary School; however, the Trust reserves the right to require you to work at other schools within the Trust. As part of Lingfield Education Trust, there are exciting opportunities to work across the Trust and for career progression.
