Learning Support Assistant (LSA)

Job Description

We are currently looking for both full and part-time Learning Support Assistants for mainstream secondary schools based in Birmingham. The schools are looking for people on a full or part time basis starting May 2024.

  • You will need to be creative in the classroom and be able to offer engaging support to the class teacher and students.
