Teaching Assistant

Step into a vibrant Warwick primary school where every day brings new opportunities to inspire young learners. This full‑time KS1 Teaching Assistant role is perfect for someone who thrives in a busy classroom, enjoys supporting early learning, and wants to make a real difference.

• Lead small‑group activities that build confidence and reinforce key skills
• Provide 1:1 guidance for pupils who need additional encouragement
• Prepare resources, organise learning spaces and keep the classroom running smoothly
• Use positive behaviour strategies to maintain a calm, structured environment
• Work closely with teachers to deliver engaging, well‑paced learning throughout the day

What We’re Looking For

• Strong classroom‑based experience (essential)
• Confident supporting learning across KS1
