Are you unsure on where in education you see yourself in the future?
Are you looking for hands on experience, support and training to secure a placement in a Primary school? Perhaps you're looking to gain invaluable, career defining experience towards a PGCE or another relevant qualification?
Then Teaching Personnel's graduate Teaching Assistant scheme may be just what you are looking for!

- General TA KS1

- Early Years Assistant and Nursery Nurse

No experience? Not a problem!
- The Diocese is looking to support inexperienced staff by providing a selection of candidates the relevant experience and training to secure a post in either one of their schools or one of the many other schools which Teaching Personnel is working with. This is through a mixture of CPD, sit down talks with experienced Head Teachers and experience days provided with full feedback and referencing that proves invaluable in securing work!
Not Catholic? Not a problem either!
- The Diocese are looking for people who can uphold the ethos of the diocese with this being covered in the Head Teacher talk provided in the program
- Catholic schools are diverse and inclusive; only 41% of the 41,000 pupils in independent Catholic schools were Catholic. Proportions of Catholic teachers were lower: 57% of 44,000 in maintained schools and 40% of 5,000 in independent schools
Why Catholic schools?
- 'In terms of overall effectiveness, Ofsted judged 73% of Catholic secondary schools to be outstanding or good, compared to 60% of schools nationally. For primary schools, 74% of Catholic schools were judged outstanding or good compared to 66% nationally
