Required from end August 2025
We still have one full-time vacancy from the start of the academic year 2025-26 for loving, caring, enthusiastic and happy qualified Teaching Assistants with at least NVQ Level 3 Early Years qualification. Experience with Special Educational Needs is also highly welcome but not essential.
The position offers an exciting opportunity for a qualified practitioner who ispassionate about working at the cutting edge of Early Childhood Education and Development in a highly friendly and supportive team environment in which everyone strives for excellence.
The post has a one-year probationary period, like all of our positions. Deployment will likely be in our Kindergarten or Reception Cycle teams, at least initially, with scope to work with our older children in future academic years if of interest.
The actual salary will depend on the successful candidate’s experience, qualifications and agreed working hours. The 2024-25 actual annual Term-Time Only starting salary ranges from £21,465-£22,900; this does not yet factor a small pay scale increase we are planning for 2025-26 and the eligibility of a small discretionary bonus. It is for Term-Time Only (34-35 working weeks + 5.6 weeks paid holiday) for our standard full-time hours of 8.30-15.45 Monday-Friday (the comparable annual Full-Time Equivalent salary would be £27,980-£29,852).
The 30-minute lunch break and the 15-minute morning break are paid. There are opportunities for earning additional remuneration through enhanced overtime rates for wrap-around care or by signing up to work during our holiday provision (up to 7-8 weeks in the year, see our website for details).
