Bilingual Support Assistant
About This Role
Kenton School is at the cutting edge of modern education. With just under 1500 students, we are amongst the largest schools in the North East. However, despite our size we pride ourselves on retaining a family atmosphere and in ensuring that we cater for the needs of all our students, recognising their special gifts or talents.
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Bilingual Support Assistant to work alongside our EAL (English as an Additional Language) Co-ordinator to support individual students and small groups of students to learn and integrate.
Candidates must possess a high level of English oral and written communication skills and excellent interpersonal skills, combined with the ability to speak at least one other language at a fluent level.
Previous experience working with secondary school age children would be desirable.
In return Kenton School offers fantastic developmental possibilities due to its success, size, facilities and a forward-thinking management and staff working together to offer the best available chances for our pupils.
If you have the skills, commitment and enthusiasm to succeed in this role, we want to hear from you.
