Description
TEACHING ASSISTANT/SUPPORT STAFF

Maybe you've been a Sports coach, Child minder, have a Performing Arts background, or are a Youth Worker, Mentor, Social Worker, Workshop Facilitator? Or maybe you have graduated and are interested in a career in education? Talk to a consultant today


With the number of pupils in schools on the rise and the demand to increase educational standards, schools have significantly increased the number of Teaching Assistants in Primary Schools.

As a result I am currently recruiting passionate individuals from different industries/backgrounds and who may have relevant experience, wishing to carry out temporary assignments(length of role can vary) within primary schools in Tower Hamlets.

There is no set entry-level qualification for being a TA but you need to have good reading, writing and numeracy skills, as well as good organisational and communication skills.


The Role:
A teaching assistant (TA) works alongside a class teacher in either a Nursery or Primary school. He or she might work one-to-one with individual pupils or with a small group.


Teaching assistants (known as classroom assistants or learning support assistants in some schools) also carry out tasks that allow the class teacher to concentrate on teaching.

They might prepare the classroom for a certain lesson (eg setting up equipment for a maths lesson), tidy up at the end of a session, or put together displays of children's work.

They help teachers on school outings and at sports events.

And if a child is upset or has an accident, the TA can focus on that child while the teacher carries on leading the whole class.


Sometimes TAs have a particular specialism - for example, they may speak an additional language (which is especially useful when some pupils in the class have that language as their first language).
