We are extremely proud to be one of only 26 schools currently in Northumberland who have successfully been granted government funding for wrap around child care and we would like to employ a Teaching Assistant who will be able to help run our busier sessions and lead our quieter sessions.

In addition to this post, we are really pleased to have growing pupil numbers across the school and would like these children to be supported further enabling us to maintain extremely low adult to pupil ratios.

The  successful candidate will be able to support class teaching and learning, small group and one to one support mainly within Key Stage 2 although may be required to work across the whole school from Early Years to Year 6. 

You will be supported by an outstanding senior leadership team, excellent practitioners and governing body as well as strong support from families, children who are polite, well behaved and keen to learn.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff to share this commitment. An enhanced criminal records check is required for this post.

If you would like to apply for this post please complete the attached documentation including completion of an application form and return to belinda.athey@whittingham.northumberland.sch.uk by 12 noon on Monday 11th November 2024.
