Temporary Teaching Assistant (SEND) Required from November 2020 until July 2021 to support nursery aged children with SEND
Grade 3 £18933 - £19698 pro rata

The Headteacher and Governors of Seaham Harbour Nursery School are looking to appoint a committed, highly motivated, enthusiastic and caring Early Years Practitioner to join our outstanding team, supporting nursery aged children with SEND within our school.
Applicants must be qualified to level 3 (CACHE diploma in nursery nursing (NNEB), BTEC in childcare and education or NVQ Level 3) and have experience of working with young children. The experience of working with children with special educational needs is desirable. Please make special reference to any skills or qualities you have which you would deem particularly relevant to our school.

Where our roles are customer facing and you are required to speak to members of the public, the ability to converse at ease with customers and provide advice in accurate spoken English is essential for the post. As a disability confident employer, we are committed to employing disabled people and people with health conditions making reasonable adjustments to support disabled applicants when required

Durham County Council is an Equal Opportunities Employer. We want to develop a more diverse workforce and we positively welcome applications from all sections of the community. Applicants with disabilities will be invited for interview if the essential job criteria are met.

Calculation of term time only plus two weeks’ pay

Term time only plus two additional weeks’ pay is calculated on the basis of the following:
• Number of ‘teaching’ weeks – 38 weeks; plus
• Public (bank) holidays – 1.6 weeks (8 days); plus
• Two additional weeks, inclusive of CPD – 2 weeks; plus
• Individual leave entitlement - 5.2 weeks (26 days) or 6.2 weeks (31 days)
Individual leave entitlement is calculated on the length of continuous service.
Employees with less than 5 years’ service will receive 26 days annual leave.
Employees with more than 5 years’ service will receive 31 days annual leave.
For example:

Calculation for employees with less than 5 years’ service:
40 weeks (term time plus 2) + 26 days (annual leave) + 8 days (public holidays) = 46.8 weeks’ pay, to be paid in 12 equal monthly instalments

Calculation for employees with more than 5 years’ service:
40 weeks (term time plus 2) + 31 days (annual leave) + 8 days (public holidays) = 47.8 weeks’ pay, to be paid in 12 equal monthly instalments

The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Any offer of employment will be subject to receipt of a satisfactory DBS Enhanced Disclosure and checks with past employers. In line with the County Council’s Recruitment and Selection Policy, please note that we are unable to accept CV’s. Any information provided on CV’s will not be considered for short listing purposes.
