TEACHING ASSISTANT 

From Sept 2023.   Full time

We are seeking a teaching assistant to work with a child in our Reception Class from September.

Do you enjoy working with children? Are you calm, organised and friendly? Do you have a good sense of humour and a warm personality? Are you able to use your initiative?  Would you like to make a difference for the children in our school?

If you can answer yes to all these questions, then you could be just the person we are looking for.

This is a full time, term time only role in our lovely little village school. We nurture our children to become happy, healthy and informed individuals. We encourage our school community to ‘Let your light shine’.

The role would be working mainly as a key worker for a child with additional needs within a classroom of children from Reception to Year 2. However, there will also be some opportunities to work with small groups of children. You will need to be enthusiastic and have a good understanding about how children learn. There will be some specialist training available.

We can offer a caring environment in which to work. Our children are wonderful and we are proud of the positive and friendly atmosphere in our school. You will be working as part of a team with experienced teachers and teaching assistants. For more information about our school please look at our website https://www.st-birinus-pri.oxon.sch.uk/
