Teaching Assistant (mornings only)
Required September 2025
‘With God’s love we can fly’
Chester Diocesan Academies Trust and The Governors of Huxley C.E. Primary School are eager to appoint an outstanding SEND Teaching Assistant to teach and support a small group of children- mainly within LKS2 class. We are looking for someone to join our enthusiastic, dedicated, nurturing team from September on a morning only basis (5 mornings as these children are full time pupils).
Huxley CE Primary is a mainstream school that offers flexi-schooling provision. The majority of our children attend school on the core days of Tuesday- Thursday and are educated at home for the remainder of the week. In partnership with the parents, we wish to deliver a holistic educational experience which embraces both ‘in school’ and ‘at home’ learning. The group you will be supporting in the morning have some support needs and therefore experience of working with SEND children is essential. We are looking for someone who has a good understanding of ASD and ADHD and takes a trauma informed approach to supporting our pupils to thrive to be the best that they can be. Your role will be to assist the class teacher in delivery of curriculum whilst also supporting the pupil’s individual plans (this includes short sensory breaks, movement and art therapy).
We are looking for a teaching assistant with a strong commitment to raising attainment and providing challenging opportunities to engage all learners, develop the whole child and support wellbeing. It is important to us that you are a nurturing and compassionate practitioner with strong interpersonal skills. We are looking for a teaching assistant who can help provide and support a range of memorable and exciting educational experiences to ensure that our children not only love to attend school but are inspired to learn and will thrive in our school.
It is important to us that you have a willingness to contribute and play an active part in our strong team ethos as our school expands and grows. We are looking for someone with experience of supporting teaching in all key stages (ideally with mixed age teaching).
This post is initially for one year, but we are hopeful this will continue.
Our school community places the highest priority on keeping our children safe. Applicants for all posts will be subject to stringent vetting and induction processes. Our safeguarding policy can be found on our website. The holder of this post will be required to work with children under the age of 18 in a position of trust, and is, therefore, exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. The successful candidate will be subject to an enhanced DBS disclosure. CDAT is committed to Equal Opportunities in Employment
