Burlescombe COE Primary School – Reception and KS1 TA – 30 HPW – 39 weeks – Grade B – £12.85 – £13.05 per hour
We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic, caring, and flexible Teaching Assistant to join our team. This role will be primarily based in our Reception and Key Stage 1 class, supporting our youngest learners as they begin their school journey. However, the successful candidate may also be asked to work in other areas of the school when needed, so a positive and adaptable approach is essential.
As a key member of our staff team, you will work closely with the class teacher to support high-quality learning, nurture children’s development, and help create a safe, engaging, and inclusive environment.
You will assist with learning activities, provide targeted support for individuals and small groups, and contribute to the wider life of the school. We are looking for someone who has experience working with young children, ideally in a school or early years setting. The ideal candidate will be warm, patient, and committed to supporting children’s learning and wellbeing. They should be able to work collaboratively as part of a team, be flexible in order to support across the school when required, and demonstrate a positive attitude and a genuine passion for helping children thrive.
All our pupils are supported by our teachers as individuals to grow to be inspiring changemakers in a caring, family and community-centred environment. We are committed to helping our children develop and evolve during their time with us and beyond.
If you are committed, enthusiastic, and ready to contribute to our school community, we would love to hear from you.
Visits to the school are warmly encouraged — we would love to show you what makes Burlescombe C of E Primary such a special place to work and learn. Please contact the school directly on 01823 672521 to arrange a visit.
