They will be required to be an active team player within the school, as we work hard as an effective team in improving teaching and learning for all children. In return we offer the opportunity to work as part of a highly motivated and supportive team, opportunities for CPD and a caring ethos from parents and governors. THIS ROLE MAY BE EXTENDED IF FUNDING CONTINUES TO BE IN PLACE Due to this post having access to children and/or vulnerable adults, the successful candidate will be required to undertake a Disclosure and Barring Service check.
