Primary Classroom Assistant - Dursley

Vision for Education are looking for Primary Classroom Assistants to support primary schools in Dursley and the surrounding areas of Gloucestershire .

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys being around children and wants a role where they can make a real difference in the classroom. You'll work alongside teachers and other support staff, helping pupils with their learning, keeping them engaged and giving extra support where it's needed.

There are opportunities across different year groups, and some positions involve working closely with children who have SEND and additional needs , including autism, ADHD, communication difficulties and learning needs.

Whether you're an experienced Teaching Assistant, Classroom Assistant or Learning Support Assistant , or you have transferable experience from childcare, youth work, care or coaching, we'd be interested in hearing from you.

What you'll be doing

• Supporting social and communication skills
• Helping create a positive and well-managed classroom

Previous school experience is useful but isn't essential. You may have worked as a Teaching Assistant, TA, SEN TA, LSA, Learning Support Assistant, Nursery Practitioner, Support Worker, Youth Worker or Sports Coach , or simply have strong experience working with children.

You'll need to be:

• Patient and understanding
• Confident communicating with children
• Able to work well with teachers and other staff
• Adaptable and willing to support different pupils
• Reliable and professional

• Full-time, part-time and flexible opportunities
• Short-term and long-term placements
