We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic, pupil-centered Teaching Assistant, to work supporting students with special educational needs.

We are excited as we move forward to support our young people in removing barriers to learning and celebrating all success as children in our community "Aspire to Be More" and fulfil their true potential.

This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious individual to champion our Academy's development, by joining us on our journey and helping to ensure our students receive a world- class education.

We are a part of the Frank Field Education Trust and work collaboratively with others in our FFET family, allowing our students and staff many opportunities to develop themselves. This is embodied in the FFET vision: 'Social Justice through Excellence in Education' and in the Academy's vision to provide world class education to all our students.

We welcome applications from all parts of our community as we aspire to have a staff body that matches the social and cultural diversity of our student intake.
