Are you a recent University Graduate who has studied in Education? Have you got a Teaching Assistant Qualification? Do you have experience working with Primary aged children?

A Primary school we work closely with in Pontefract (WF7) are currently looking for a Teaching Assistant starting this September to help support children in Key Stage 2. This is a full time role and the working hours will be from 8:30am - 3:30pm. 

There will be a requirement for a successful candidate who can work alongside teaching and support staff at our highly supportive primary school in Pontefract. This is a Junior School and you will be based with a class within the KS2 Phase.
