Education ⫽ Teaching Assistant Jobs

Rhyddings are seeking to appoint 2 enthusiastic, committed, skilled and highly effective Teaching Assistants to further support our successful teaching assistant team. We are looking for excellent TA's who are able to support the educational aims of the school. The successful candidates will have the opportunity to work across the curriculum in either KS3 or KS4 as part of an experienced team of TA's. A significant investment in CPD for TAs has developed specialisms in Phonics, supporting those at an early stage of reading, EAL support and the four areas of SEND need. This is underpinned by research evidence and the EEF '5 a day'.

Experience of working in schools, in either secondary or primary settings, and with young people with SEND, supporting curriculum delivery alongside teaching staff for both planned and unforeseen absences is at the core of this post. They will be effective and efficient and able to form positive working relationships in all aspects of the role.

The need to support pupils with EHCP's, 1-1 targeted specific interventions and support and promote independence in the classroom, based on teacher direction is key to this role.

Transition - supporting those on the Assess, Plan, Do, Review cycle who may be working towards an EHCP or have just received one.

Have high aspirations for all learners with SEND.

You will work closely with the school's SENDCo, TA and pastoral teams and teachers to secure the best levels of pupil progress and achievement. An external audit of SEND provision highlighted the many areas of excellent practice and strengths of the team, 'Rhyddings School Leaders are passionate about improving outcomes and provision for children and young people with SEND.'
