Level 3 Teaching Assistant Positions

Overview

Thomas Ashton School is entering an exciting phase of development, and we are looking for passionate, resilient and committed practitioners to join our team. We currently have opportunities within both our Key Stage 2 and Key Stage 3 provisions. Whilst both roles require a relational, trauma-informed approach, they offer distinct opportunities to support pupils at different stages of their educational journey.

We are looking for someone who:

Understands the complex barriers faced by pupils with SEN and SEMH needs
Can build strong, trusting relationships with pupils and colleagues
Demonstrates warmth, patience, empathy and consistency
Maintains high expectations whilst remaining calm and relational
Understands that children thrive when adults provide predictable and reliable support
Is resilient, reflective and able to work in emotionally demanding contexts
Works effectively as part of a team and contributes positively to school life
