VACANCIES FOR TEACHING ASSISTANTS, FULL- AND PART-TIME
The Two Boats School is looking for caring and committed people to join our team of Teaching Assistants. Teaching Assistants are deployed in a variety of changing roles and are expected to be flexible and ready to learn new skills.
The work includes
- Supporting teachers in Early Years Foundation Stage classes
- Assisting teachers with planning and preparation
- Developing educational resources and displays
- Supervising activities including educational visits
- Attending meetings and liaising with parents
- Helping individual students with Special Educational Needs access the curriculum
- Ensuring their welfare
- Delivering specific intervention programmes.
A patient, positive disposition is essential. Ability to use the Makaton sign system and counseling experience would be particular advantages. AIG and Two Boats School are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expect all staff to share this commitment. An appropriate criminal records check will be required.
We can offer you
- A friendly, supportive work place.
- The opportunity to work with the most exciting people on Ascension (the children!)
- Training and development opportunities suitable to your needs and experience.
Salary will depend upon qualifications and experience. The posts are offered as Household Status Contracts for two years (only suitable for a person who is already living on Ascension as a member of an accompanied status employee’s household), however Single Status with accommodation will be considered for an exceptional candidate for a full time post bringing new expertise to the school.
Before applying for the post please feel free to contact the Headteacher David Blunt at the school on 6155 for an informal chat about the post so that you have a good understanding of the role and what will be expected of you.
