• Assist with core curriculum areas such as literacy and numeracy.

• Manage behaviour calmly and consistently, using clear expectations and positive reinforcement.

• Help maintain a safe, structured, and purposeful learning environment where every student can succeed.

We’re Looking for Someone Who:

• Thrives in high-energy, high-pressure school settings.

• Has a strong classroom presence and natural behaviour-management skills.

• Stays calm, resilient, and solutions-focused under pressure.

• Is proactive, flexible, and willing to step in where needed.

• Builds respectful, positive relationships with pupils and staff.

Please note: A full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle are essential due to travel requirements.
