Are you passionate about removing learning barriers and enabling every student to reach their potential? Join us as a Teaching Assistant, working directly with teachers to implement tailored learning activities and provide essential academic and welfare support to individuals and small groups. This varied role spans classroom support, intervention management (including for SEND and EAL students), and helping to develop individualized student support plans.

As Principal, I am really proud to be able to introduce you to our academy. We are a large four form entry Junior School situated in Scunthorpe, an industrial garden town at the heart of North Lincolnshire. We are driven by a relentless pursuit of excellence and an unwavering belief in the potential of every child. We put children first and go above and beyond to support our wonderful pupils, families and community in any way we can.

Our staff are kind, collaborative, supportive and build excellent relationships. They are dedicated and passionate and they go above and beyond to make a difference in the lives of our pupils. They are motivated by a shared belief in the transformative power of education and a deep-rooted commitment to our community. We are constantly striving to improve our practice and provide the very best learning experience for every child.

We pride ourselves on our high expectations for pupils.

We are extremely proud to be part of the Outwood Family, a Trust renowned for its commitment to transforming lives and raising standards. If you share our passion for making a real difference in the lives of young people, we would be delighted to welcome you to our team.

When visitors come to our school, they often comment on the wonderful atmosphere in the academy. It is such a lovely, calm and purposeful place to work. Come and see us in action and see if we are the right employer for you.

I look forward to meeting you.

You will be integral to the teaching cycle, implementing planned learning activities, supporting the teacher in monitoring and recording student progress, and providing constructive feedback to students. You will support students with special educational needs (SEND) or English as an additional language (EAL), assisting in the development of individual plans like One Page Profiles and EHCPs.

Duties include supporting student social and emotional well-being, assisting with eating, dressing, and hygiene where required, and providing cover and assistance in intervention settings like the Bridge and PLC. You will also assist in escorting and supervising students on educational visits and invigilate formal examinations.
