About the Role:

As a Teaching Assistant, you will support teachers and pupils in the classroom, helping to create a positive and engaging learning environment. Most of our current opportunities are within mainstream primary schools, where you will work closely with children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).

You'll assist with learning activities, promote inclusion, and work collaboratively with the class teacher and SENDCo to ensure every child feels supported, valued, and confident in their learning.

Teaching Assistant's should be comfortable and enthusiastic about working with SEND pupils, demonstrating patience, empathy, and a proactive approach to learning support.

Requirements:

* Experience: Previous experience working in a UK-based school (essential)

* Qualifications:

* Minimum Level 2 (or above) in a child-related qualification

* Minimum Level 2 in English and Maths

* Location: Must be based locally to Birmingham or surrounding areas

* A strong understanding of safeguarding and child development

* Excellent communication and teamwork skills

* A positive, proactive attitude and a genuine passion for supporting children's learning

What We Offer for Teaching Assistant's:

* Competitive pay rates

* Long-term, stable positions across a range of welcoming primary schools

* Ongoing support and professional development, including access to over 150 CPD courses

* Opportunities for career progression, with the potential to move into permanent roles or explore wider school-based opportunities

* A supportive and friendly working environment where your contribution is valued

If you are passionate about supporting young learners and want to be part of a friendly, supportive school community, we'd love to hear from you.
