Teaching Assistant Level 2

An

opportunity has arisen within our successful and highly skilled team for a

teaching assistant to join our school.

At Turton our children are fiercely loyal, and so we are looking for

someone who is just as committed to them.

Our Learning

Support department is looking for suitably motivated and enthusiastic

individuals to join a large team of friendly Teaching Assistants. The Learning Support Department engages with

a range of students with additional needs, including communication and

interaction, cognition and learning, SEMH, sensory and physical

difficulties. Duties will include

supporting in mainstream lessons, working with pupils in small groups or 1 to 1

sessions, to progress pupil learning both educationally and personally, encouraging

their engagement in lessons whilst promoting inclusion and the holistic

development of the pupil.
