Higher Level Teaching Assistant - South Site

About this Role

We require a creative HLTA at our South Site who is passionate about providing the best possible education and care for vulnerable students. As we are a nurture based provision we follow a primary based model and post holders would spend the majority of their time working as a consistent tutor with just one or two classes and work with teachers and instructors to lead in the delivery of planned activities according to the needs of pupils and groups. You may lead on areas such as PSHCE and pastoral subjects support or co-teach with the specialist teachers that come to the class to deliver more academic input and developing activities, courses, campaigns and events aimed at increasing the participation of children and young people. This is an exciting opportunity to get back to teaching children and play a significant part of their overall development. This could be a great opportunity to take full pastoral responsibility for a small group(s) as a stepping stone into teaching. We would provide full training to staff to support them in either of these areas.

This position would suit a candidate with a proven track record of being an advocate and supporting the learning of vulnerable pupils with social, emotional and mental health difficulties (SEMH). It would suit an individual who is passionate about making a real difference to student’s life chances and supporting them in achieving their potential in essential life skills, which is a high priority for [Employer hidden — sign up to reveal]. The ability to be creative and use imaginative flair to engage is essential, along with having resilience, drive and high expectations to inspire students to achieve. As we are a growing Academy with a teacher training school in the trust, it may also provide an opportunity of further opportunities in the future.
