Starting in January 2024, this ongoing role will require you to work Monday to Thursday, providing invaluable support to students in a Year 2 class. As an LSA, you will play a vital role in aiding the students’ learning journey, ensuring they receive the necessary guidance and assistance to both support and challenge.
The school has strong values and prioritise the mental health and well-being of both staff and pupils. The supportive Senior Leadership Team (SLT) ensures that everyone feels valued and supported, creating a positive and nurturing environment for both personal and professional growth.

To be successful in this role, you should have excellent communication skills, a patient and caring nature, and the ability to build positive relationships with students, staff, and parents. You should be able to use and work to your own initiative as well as taking guidance from the class teacher.
