Do you want to work within the education sector but have limited or no experience?
Not to worry, a secondary school in the Weymouth area wants to recruit dedicated and caring individuals to work as a Teaching Assistant and/or Cover Supervisor.
This role will start on a temporary contract with a view to go permanent for the right candidate. Ideally, you will have a degree or experience however a candidate with a great personality who wants to get into the Education sector as a Teaching Assistant or Supply Teacher will also be considered.
As a Teaching Assistant you will be required to work 1:1 or in small and large groups with KS3 and KS4 pupils or within the classroom to assist the teacher in the delivery of curriculum. Alternatively, as a Cover Supervisor, you would be managing the classroom in a teacher's absence therefore we would be looking for confident individuals and previous experience in behaviour management would be desired.

- Competitive pay rate- we care about all our teachers and support staff and so ensure we offer you a fair and competitive rate.
- Flexibility - One extremely useful benefit of securing your long term role through us is that it allows you to go into a school and decide whether it is the right one for you before fully committing to the entire academic year
We have a number of part time and full time roles available. If you are unable to commit to a particular role but still wish to gain classroom experience we can also offer you day to day supply work to fit around your schedule.
