Temporary
Full Time
This post is initially for one year in our FS1
St Edmund’s CofE Primary School Church Hill Ave, Mansfield Woodhouse, Mansfield NG19 9JU
Grade 3

We are looking for an excellent teaching assistant to join our happy and committed team to help nurture the belief in our children that they can genuinely achieve anything they put their minds to.

This post is initially for one year in our FS1 (nursery) class, but there is every opportunity for the right candidate to stay on beyond the first year.

We passionately believe that all children, whatever their individual circumstances, should feel secure, included, valued and challenged in all aspects of school life by being at the centre of every action and decision we make. We strive to enable our children to leave St Edmund’s as skilled and well-rounded individuals, successfully prepared to take on the challenge of secondary school and adulthood.

We are a happy family team who try our hardest to put the ‘wow factor’ into every day we spend with our children.

Is this a vision that you share? If so, we are looking for someone who:

  • genuinely enjoys working with children and puts the children’s well-being before anything else.
  • approaches the role with enthusiasm and a positive attitude.
  • has high expectations of all children’s achievement and behaviour.
  • has ideas and energy.
  • sincerely values every member of the school community.
  • is eager to make a wider contribution to school life.

In return, we can offer you:

  • a truly amazing group of friendly, motived and well-behaved children, who we are all proud of.
  • access to substantial professional development, tailored to your personalised needs.
  • an attractive well-resourced learning environment.
  • a senior leadership team who are committed to ensuring your well-being.
