An exciting opportunity has arisen at Oasis Academy Long Cross for an enthusiastic and caring individual to provide support for learning activities on an individual or small group basis in our Academy, under the direction of the line manager.

We are looking for an enthusiastic, flexible and adaptable Learning Support Assistant to join our highly skilled team, who is committed to providing outstanding provision for children. We need a resilient, positive practitioner who shows a good understanding of child development and a clear knowledge of the curriculum. Experience in KS1 or lower KS2 is preferred.

Candidates will be expected to have at least an NVQ2 or equivalent qualification or be working towards this and experience of working with children in either a mainstream or special school provision.

This post is covered by Part 7 of the Immigration Act (2016) and therefore the ability to speak fluent spoken English is an essential requirement for this role.

Oasis Academy Long Cross is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this committment. We will ensure that all our recruitment and selection practices reflect this committment. All successful candidates will be subject to a full DBS check, along with other relevant employment checks.
