TEACHING ASSISTANT NEEDED TO SUPPORT READING/WRITING AND PHONICS 

With the current situation and school closures, many pupils will be returning to school in September having had no formal education or structure since March. School leaders are expecting regression in learning, mainly in the areas of reading and writing, as many parents have struggled to support this (especially for EAL pupils). 

Teaching Personnel are looking for an English Graduate, or support staff member with an English specialism, to deliver tuition and intervention either 121 or on a small group basis. Many children will have a gap in their phonics understanding, or will have completely lost confidence in their reading and writing ability.

• Full or part time work to fit around your existing commitment
