Learning Support Assistant

We're currently looking for Learning Support Assistants to join our team and support primary schools across Cardiff from September 2026. What does a Learning Support Assistant actually do? No two days are ever quite the same! You'll work closely with teachers and other staff to help create a positive environment where children feel supported, included and confident in their learning.

• Helping the class teacher with activities, resources and general classroom support.
• Working with children who may need some extra help to stay focused and engaged during lessons.
• Supporting pupils during different parts of the school day, including group work, outdoor activities and transitions between lessons.
• Building positive relationships with children and becoming a supportive presence in the classroom.

• Schools or education
• Nurseries or childcare
• Youth work
• Sports coaching
• Holiday or activity clubs
• Support or care work
