Are you a graduate looking to gain some school experience before perhaps pursuing a career in teaching?

St John’s Primary School is currently looking to appoint an enthusiastic, dedicated Graduate Teaching Assistant to join our team, starting as soon as possible.

We are seeking an individual who thrives on feedback and has the drive to constantly learn and develop. Providing an open, friendly working environment for you to grow in, the role will include supporting pupils to improve their work across the curriculum.

We are looking for:
• Someone with a genuine love of learning and the desire to instil this in our children
• A calm and patient person, who is able to see the potential in all of our pupils and be inspirational for them
• Someone who is nurturing and supportive, with high expectations
• The ability to support in the delivery of high quality learning experiences, sometimes on a 1:1 basis and sometimes in a small group
• Excellent communication skills, both oral and written
• Confident with ICT, and willing to learn new skills
• The ability to work independently, showing initiative, as well as being part of a team, co-operating and collaborating with other staff
• Qualifications to 2:1 degree level or equivalent
• Basic knowledge of SEND and learning barriers, and of some of the social issues facing students from disadvantaged backgrounds
• Experience of working directly with young people in an education or training environment, ideally working in a similar role in a school (though not essential)

St John’s Primary School is strongly committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. The successful candidate will be required to undertake an enhanced DBS disclosure and barred list check plus a range of other recruitment checks.
