Specialist intervention Teaching Assistant

Paid for working 39 weeks of the year, 35 hours a week

Do you have the passion and skills to be part of our school team, creating an inspiring and nurturing environment for our children? This is an exciting opportunity for a Special Intervention Teaching Assistant to be part of something incredibly special as we are a new school, expanding each year. 

The primary phase of Wren Academy opened in September 2015 with the Early Years Foundation Stage classes. Through the addition of a cohort of children each year, we have grown into a two-form entry primary school, joining our successful and outstanding secondary school. Located in the London Borough of Barnet, Wren Academy is sponsored by the Church of England and Berkhamsted School. 

The successful applicants must have a good level of numeracy and literacy skills and be able to support students in reaching their full potential. Experience of EYFS, an NVQ level 2/3, or equivalent, and a first aid certificate would be an advantage, though by no means essential. 

At Wren Academy we are always looking at ways to develop our staff. If you have a degree and hold aspirations of becoming a teacher in the future, this could be an excellent opportunity for you. Successful teaching assistants would be encouraged to apply for the Schools Direct programme after gaining experience as a teaching assistant here at Wren. 

The detailed Job Description, additional information about the Academy and the application form are available from our website, www.wrenacademy.org/recruitment 

Closing date: 9am, Thursday 22 August 2024.

The Wren Academies Trust is committed to the highest standards of safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. A Disclosure and Barring Service Certificate will be required for all posts which will be subject to enhanced checks. 

The Trust embraces diversity and promotes equality of opportunity. We wish to further develop a diverse community and encourage applications from all sections of society.
