Do you find real reward in building positive relationships with children — spotting their strengths, nurturing their confidence and helping them overcome barriers to learning?

We have a fantastic opportunity for a caring, professional and enthusiastic Level 3 Teaching Assistant to join our highly collaborative and supportive SEND team at Radcliffe on Trent Junior School.

This role involves providing 1:1 and small group support for pupils with social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) and other additional needs, helping them to regulate, engage and succeed in their learning. Some flexibility around lunchtime duties is included.

We are looking for someone who is patient, empathetic and calm, who understands that behaviour is a form of communication and who keeps pupil wellbeing at the heart of everything they do.

In return, we offer a caring and inclusive ethos, a supportive staff team, and access to high-quality CPD.

Visits to the school are warmly welcomed – please contact 0115 9110193 or office@rotjs.notts.sch.uk for further details.
