What the school offers its staff

We can offer you support and continuing professional development so that you can fulfil your role well. Carterknowle Junior School is a lovely school with wonderful children who are eager to learn. We are committed to meeting children's individual learning needs, working in partnership with parents and carers. Breaktime and lunchtime supervision is part of this role. The working hours are Monday to Friday - 8.30am - 4.00pm (with two daily breaks of 15 and 30 minutes).

You will need to have experience of working with primary aged children and supporting them effectively both in and out of the classroom. You will need to have high expectations for what junior children can achieve both in their learning and in their independence, while being able to provide good pastoral support and care.

As a HLTA you will be required to cover classes across KS2 including PPA/ ECT/ management time and any other relief cover that is needed; assist class teachers with preparation; assessment; supporting with adaptive learning and delivering interventions. Excellent numeracy and literacy skills are essential for this post.

The governors will consider those who have:

• Relevant teaching assistant qualifications
