The North East Learning Trust is seeking to appoint a Teaching Assistant with effect from April 2020. The post-holder will work as part of team to support identified students across all year groups in the classroom. The post will be based in Teesdale School and Sixth Form, rated as ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted in June 2019.
We have 628 children across Key Stages 3 and 4 and Post-16. Our small size means that you can really get to know our students; know who they are; their aspirations, ideas, talents and dreams, bringing out the best in them, helping to champion their ambitions and give them a great start in life.
Nestled in Barnard Castle in the spectacular Teesdale countryside and imprinted with the historic values of the Dales and our close-knit community, Teesdale School is a place where traditional values of kindness, respect and hard work take precedence. Within 30 minutes of both Darlington and Durham and just over an hour from York and Newcastle, our idyllic yet convenient location affords our staff an enviable quality of life.
The successful candidate will:
- Provide learning support under the supervision of a qualified teacher
- Provide up to date information on progress and attainment
- Provide pupil responses and learning achievements highlighting any specific difficulties or concerns
- Support pupils with social and emotional wellbeing
