About This Role
Join our KEPS Team:
Seeking an Exceptional Teaching Assistant
Role: Teaching Assistant (Grade 3)
King Edwin Primary School, Edwinstowe
Contract: 1yr with potential for extension
At King Edwin Primary School, we believe that education is about more than just meeting targets; it’s about
igniting curiosity and building the confidence children need to navigate the world.
Our school is a vibrant hub in
the Edwinstowe community, defined by a culture of high expectations, mutual respect, and a genuine sense of
belonging.
We are currently looking for a dedicated and inspirational Teaching Assistant to join our team.
We aren't
looking for someone to simply "assist" - we are looking for a #KingEdwinner: a professional who is deeply
committed to the craft of supporting young learners and who brings a unique, positive energy to our classrooms.
What We Are Looking For:
The successful candidate will be someone who understands and is skilled at supporting our children both
academically and emotionally.
We want to hear from you if:
• You are a specialist in potential: You have a knack for identifying a child’s barriers to learning and the
patience and skill to help them break through.
• You lead by example: You model resilience, kindness, and curiosity in everything you do.
• You are proactive: You don’t wait to be told where you’re needed; you see the "gap" and fill it with
purposeful support.
• You value connection: You understand that children learn best when they feel safe and seen. You are a
master at building rapport with students, parents, and colleagues alike.
• You hold high standards: You take pride in your work and believe that every child - regardless of their
starting point - is capable of greatness.
