Full Time, Term Time Only + 2 Weeks
Temporary – required as soon aspossible until 31st August 2025
The Governors of Tanfield Lea Community Primary School are keen to appoint a highly motivated and enthusiastic Teaching Assistant.
This position is a full-time temporary post until 31 August 2025, in the first instance.
The post is for someone with the ability to be able to work across Key Stages 1 and 2. Responsibilities include class support (which could include 1:1 support), small group intervention focusing on Maths and English, as well as being able to teach the whole class.
This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of our team.
We are looking for someone who:
• is dynamic and innovative;
• is committed to excellence, enjoyment and fun in learning; and
• has a hard working, positive, ‘can do’ attitude to school life.
And in return we will offer:
• an inclusive school with happy, well behaved children who enjoy learning;
• a supportive staff;
• a staff team committed to high standards;
• a commitment to continuous professional development; and
• a very supportive Governing Body.
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 - 5.4 weeks (27 days) or 6.4 weeks (32 days)
Individual leave entitlement is calculated on the length of continuous service. Employees with less than 5 years’ service will receive 27 days annual leave. Employees with more than 5 years’ service will receive 32 days annual leave. For example:
Calculation for employees with less than 5 years’ service:
40 weeks (term time plus 2) + 27 days (annual leave) + 8 days (public holidays) = 47 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) + 32 days (annual leave) + 8 days (public holidays) = 48 weeks’ pay, to be paid in 12 equal monthly instalments
If you would like an opportunity to visit the school, we have two available dates on Monday 2 December 2024 at 4.15 pm or Wednesday 4 December 2024 at 4.00 pm. Please contact Mrs Carol O’Malley to arrange.
Shortlisting will take place on Wednesday 11 December 2024.
Closing date: 12.00 noon on Tuesday 10 December 2024
Interview date: Tuesday 17 December 2024
