Teaching Assistant - Birmingham, United Kingdom - Ark St Albans Academy
Description
Ark St Alban's Academy
Teaching Assistant
We believe that all pupils can, and will succeed, at school and at university, and this role is pivotal in our work to provide all pupils with the safety and support they need to be able to flourish.
Ark St Alban's Academy is a special place. We strive to address social and educational disadvantage by providing an academically rigorous education to every child.
70% of our pupils are drawn from households ranking in the top decile for income deprivation affecting children and our school has their eight highest percentage of pupils eligible for the Pupil Premium in the country.
Despite this, the progress pupils make at Ark St Alban's Academy consistently places our school in the top 10% of schools nationally.
In this role, you will have the opportunity to learn first-hand what it takes to provide a transformational education for young people.
Our teaching assistants can make an immediate impact on the life chances of our young people.
This year, we are celebrating our first ever pupil securing a place at Cambridge.
This sits alongside consistent successes in recent years in supporting multiple pupils in securing places on competitive courses such as medicine, dentistry and law.
The number of pupils gaining places at Russell Group universities and prestigious apprenticeship providers also continues to grow.
However, we know that none of this success is possible if pupils are not taught to read, write and to do maths further down the school, and if pupils are not provided with the highly effective pastoral support and early help that they need.
Our young people need your support now more than ever, and as a Teaching Assistant you'll be a pillar of strength to not only the pupils, but to the school and community.
In this incredibly rewarding role you'll be supporting pupils, parents, and teachers to establish a learning environment in which children are able to flourish and fulfil their potential.
In joining our school, you will also be joining the Ark network.
The Ark Network leads its own highly-rated teacher training route, Ark Teacher Training.
This Ofsted 'Outstanding' rated teacher training provider has a track-record across the Ark Network and in our school of supporting those who aspire to become Trainee Teachers and go on to have long and successful careers in Ark schools.
Our school is also led by a Principal who was one of the founding cohort of Teach First teachers in the West Midlands.
Throughout our school, there are leaders at every level who know what it takes to secure a place and to succeed on highly-rated teacher training routes and know how to lead others in following their path.
