Are you a Teaching Assistant, LSA or HLTA looking for flexible work in primary schools across Leeds?

Teacher Active is recruiting experienced and enthusiastic support staff to join our Leeds primary supply team, supporting schools across KS1 (Years 1 and
2).

This is agency-based supply work, so there is no single school attached to the role
. On day-to-day supply, you could work across a number of different primary schools throughout Leeds, giving you the opportunity to build relationships with different settings and find schools that suit you.

We have opportunities ranging from day-to-day cover to longer-term placements
, with successful supply placements regularly having the potential to develop into long-term and permanent opportunities directly with schools
.

As a KS1 Teaching Assistant, you may be required to:

Support pupils across Year 1 and Year 2

Assist the class teacher with lessons and classroom activities

Provide general classroom and small-group support

Support pupils with SEND or additional learning needs where required

Help maintain positive behaviour and engagement

Support phonics, literacy and numeracy activities
