Higher Level Teaching Assistant

The Diocese of St Albans Multi-Academy Trust (DSAMAT) was established in October 2016 and has grown to be the largest Church of England Trust in the Diocese of St Albans. The Trust has a clear mission at its core, ensuring that all pupils are enabled to flourish, rooted in God’s Love - academically, socially, spiritually, physically and mentally. This is central to our work and rooted in our Christian foundation (John 10 v 10). Our commitment to mutual flourishing within the school community is built upon our shared belief in Church of England principles, and we are committed to ensuring the whole community flourishes in our Trust, not just the pupils, but also the staff, our governors and the wider school family. The Trust has a clear vision which shapes its work; Enabling all to flourish: Rooted in God’s Love. And together our academies work to be places of; Hope; Nurture; Equality; Respect; Collaboration. All employees of the Trust are expected to commit to the vision and values of the DSAMAT and demonstrate them throughout their work. The Higher Level Teaching Assistant (HLTA) works with the teachers to support teaching and learning, providing general and specific assistance to pupils and staff under the direction, guidance and supervision of the classroom teacher, teaches groups and teaches whole classes under the guidance of the class teacher. Studham Village CE Academy is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
