HLTA - Higher Level Teaching Assistant

We are looking for an individual who is a passionate, committed and confident practitioner. We want to recruit staff that engage and inspire both pupils and colleagues. Ideal candidates will be resilient, hardworking and willing to go the extra mile to ensure that our provision is 'Good or better, everyday’. As an employer, we are forward-thinking, caring and, most important of all, a happy school where pupils of all abilities and social backgrounds achieve. Our values are at the heart of everything we do and all decisions we make. Our pupils are well-behaved and always aspire to be “the best versions of themselves”. The Trust believes in no ceilings and staff are promoted and supported on their abilities, merit, effectiveness and commitment to our children, not on hierarchy or length of service. Reporting directly to the Head of School and Leadership Team, you will be responsible for agreed learning activities under a teacher's supervision. This could involve planning, preparing & delivering learning activities for individual children or groups of children or short term for whole classes. NB: Suitable candidates may be interviewed before the closing date and the school reserves the right to withdraw the position if an early appointment is made. Applicants are therefore encouraged to apply early. CV’s submitted without a completed official application form will not be considered. Lion Academy Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful candidate will require two positive references from current and previous employers. The position is subject to an enhanced DBS and completion of a medical check.
