Job Description

About the role: KS1 Teaching Assistant: As a KS1 Teaching Assistant, you’ll be working closely with an experienced teacher to support students in Key Stage 1, focusing on those who are English as an Additional Language (EAL) learners. Your role will involve providing tailored interventions, helping students with language barriers to catch up with their peers, and building their confidence in the classroom. Your previous experience with EAL learners and knowledge of different languages will be a big plus! However, if you’re simply a compassionate, patient, and kind individual who can create a nurturing learning environment, we’d love to hear from you. This role is perfect for someone who enjoys one-on-one work and has a gentle yet effective approach to helping children succeed.

About the school: Our Hackney-based school is a vibrant, diverse, and welcoming community where every child is valued. We pride ourselves on our inclusive ethos, ensuring that all students, regardless of their background, have the opportunity to thrive. Our school is well-respected within the local community, with a friendly Senior Leadership Team (SLT) that is always ready to support both staff and students. We believe in creating a safe, happy, and engaging environment where learning is a joyful experience.

Application Requirements:

• Previous experience working as a TA is preferred, but not essential.
• Experience or a strong interest in working with EAL students.
• A kind, supportive, and patient approach to working with children.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work well in a team.
• A commitment to the school’s inclusive values and the well-being of every student.

Key Responsibilities:

• Assist the classroom teacher in delivering lessons, particularly focusing on EAL students.
• Provide one-on-one and small-group interventions to boost students’ language skills.
• Help students build their confidence and integrate smoothly into the classroom environment.
• Work closely with the teacher to track students’ progress and adapt support strategies as needed.

Perks and Benefits:

• Flexibility: This part-time role allows for specific days to be discussed, making it perfect for those seeking a work-life balance.
• Supportive Environment: Work alongside an experienced teacher and a friendly SLT who are dedicated to your development.
• Professional Growth: Opportunities for CPD and further training in EAL support and teaching assistance.
• Community Spirit: Be part of a school that values diversity, inclusion, and the success of every child.
