Teaching Assistant in Pupil Referral Unit
Job description
This vacancy has now expired. Please see similar roles below...
Teaching Personnel are looking for a Teaching Assistant who will be comfortable and confident working in Pupil Referral Units in Sheffield. We need someone who is patient and has a drive for promoting student's education in order to reengage students who have been permanently excluded or are at risk of permanent exclusion.
You must have great behaviour management and be able to command control in a classroom setting. Previous experience is preferential but doesn't necessarily have to be from within a classroom setting, this line of work is also excellent for people with experience in youth work.
This could be the role for you if you are…
- Strong willed and committed to giving students the best opportunities to experience success
- Motivated to encourage learning by promoting both academic achievement and personal development
- Passionate about working in a demanding and rewarding environment to overcome educational barriers
- An outgoing and exciting individual who can engage well with young people
You will be working in a strong team determined to give pupils a high level of pastoral care. You will be needed to provide therapeutic support to pupils displaying challenging behaviour to determine the underlying reasons for their disengagement in order to reintegrate them into their mainstream schools.
Teaching Personnel can offer you short, medium or long term opportunities with Specialist Consultants ensuring you get the role you want. Being the UK's leading Supply Agency we are confident in the work we do and we also offer additional training to help boost your career opportunities. To find out more call Nicole on 0114 241 3341 or simply click APPLY NOW.
