Term:                     Permanent, 35 hours per week – 8.00am to 4.00pm Mon-Fri plus 5 training days

This post is a full-time position for a HLTA which will involve providing teaching cover for classes and to support in lessons across the school from EYFS-KS2.

Want to challenge and extend your understanding of what good teaching is? Want to use what we know from Cognitive Psychology about how the brain works to learn more? Want to be part of improving the outcomes for a fabulous group of motivated pupils?

We are looking for someone to join our support team and be part of what we are trying to build. You may be looking to take on a new challenge and will strive to develop a deeper understanding of cognitive psychology and how we can develop classroom practice to reflect this. You will not be afraid to do things that may challenge what you thought was good teaching and will be fully supported in implementing what is required.
