Description

Are you passionate about helping young minds thrive?

Do you possess transferable skills that could make you an excellent teaching assistant?


If you've ever worked with children, perhaps in the care sector, and believe your skills could positively impact their educational journey, then read on.


Consider these three important questions:

Do you believe every child, especially those struggling in mainstream education, deserves a mentor who will tirelessly support them in achieving their goals?

Do you agree that educators should embrace diverse teaching methods tailored to each child's unique learning style rather than enforcing a one-size-fits-all approach?

Do you recognize the transformative power of a change in environment to help children unlock their potential and re-engage with education?
If you answered yes to all three questions, this role might be the perfect fit for you.

While traditional schools are valuable, have you ever considered working in an environment specifically designed for children who struggle within mainstream settings? This could be the opportunity you've been searching for.


We are Classroom Recruiters, partnering with a specialist child service provider dedicated to creating personalized programs for children to learn and grow in diverse environments.

We firmly believe that every child can learn—it just requires the right mix of ingredients for each individual to thrive.

From motivation to self-belief, encouragement, and inspiration, we provide the nurturing environment necessary for children to flourish.

ASAP

Learning in a Different Environment:

Our approach encompasses a variety of settings, from specialist learning hubs to outdoor vocational sites.

We offer tailored timetables that allow children to engage in diverse learning environments, supported by a dedicated team including teaching assistants, tutors, teachers, and industry specialists.


Who We Are Looking For:

We seek individuals who share our belief in unlocking every child's potential through education. You must be positive, fun-loving, and possess a can-do attitude. Previous experience in youth work, care, nursery, or sports backgrounds is advantageous, though not essential. While education-related qualifications are a bonus, they are not mandatory.


Commonly Asked Questions:


- Will I be based at one site? While you'll have a fixed timetable, you must be comfortable working at multiple sites across the week.


- Will I only work on a 1:1 basis? While most of your time will be spent on 1:1 interactions, there will be occasions for group activities.


- What are the hours, and will I be off for school holidays? You'll work Monday to Friday, 09:00 to 15:00, with term-time-only contracts, ensuring school holiday breaks.


- Will I always be working locally? Yes, all staff are hired to work in their local area.


Training and Ongoing Development:


New recruits undergo a comprehensive induction, meeting key members of the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) and receiving in-house training on policies and procedures.

After completing a six-month probation period, you'll have the opportunity to enroll in a teaching assistant course, with the potential to advance to a Level 3 qualification and receive a £1,900 pay rise.

Further opportunities for progression, including becoming a Higher Level Teaching Assistant (HLTA) and gaining a Level 5 qualification, are available.
