Due to the internal promotion of a teaching assistant with HLTA, Brookside Primary School is looking to appoint an enthusiastic and experienced educator to work as our teaching assistant with higher level teaching assistant responsibility at least three afternoons a week. This job would suit a qualified teacher, an existing HLTA or someone willing to undertake the training to become a HLTA.

Responsibilities

The role involves supporting initially in our KS1 classes in the morning, working with small groups of pupils to lead learning in English reading, writing, phonics and mathematics. Three afternoons a week the member of staff will work as a HLTA covering the PPA time within classes. Most of the time this will be within our KS1 team but may at times involve leading classes in our EYFS or our KS2 team. At times the member of staff will be asked to lead classes at short notice due to staff absence and therefore will need to be able to think on their feet.
