Do you have the skills, ability and passion to make a real difference to our children’s lives and help them to succeed? 

Through Government catch-up funding, we are offering an exciting opportunity for exceptional individuals to join a nationally recognised Trust to support selected pupils on an individual and small-group basis. 

The aim of this programme is to provide additional support to pupils who have been most affected by the school closures as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic and address the implications of lost learning.

The ideal candidate will:

• Have specific knowledge of English and Maths at KS1 and KS2.

• Have excellent communication, time management and organisational skills 

• Be committed to safeguarding and resonate with the vision and values of Northern Education Trust

• Demonstrate the drive and ability to work with and have a real interest in the issues faced by our children, particularly owing to the Covid-19 pandemic
