We are looking for a strong candidate to join our Support Staff team as a Teaching Assistant.

These positions are not suitable for candidates who have only worked within an early years setting.
Are you highly motivated and enthusiastic? Are you able to work both independently and as part of a team?
Applicants are requested to carefully consider how their attributes match the job description and person specification. This role is initially for a fixed term to 31st August 2022.
The School is a 2 form entry Primary School, expanding to 3 forms over the coming years. We have our own Nursery accepting children on 15 and 30 hour placements. The School is well resourced and has a friendly supportive staff. We have enthusiastic, hard working children who enjoy learning. There is a strong partnership between governors, staff, parents, pupils and the local community. We value continuous professional learning, development and improvement.
Visits to the school are welcome by appointment only. Previous Applicants need not apply.

Havering Schools are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The protection of our pupils from abuse is the responsibility of all staff within our schools, superseding any other considerations. Therefore Havering Schools comply with the Department for Education ‘Keeping Children Safe in Education’ guidance.
It is an offence to apply for a post which involves engaging in regulated activity relevant to children if you are barred from doing so. Please be advised that, again in line with ‘Keeping Children Safe in Education’, shortlisted candidates (who wish to accept an invite to interview) will be required to submit, prior to their interview, a self-declaration of their criminal record or information that would make them unsuitable to work with children. Upon submission of this information, online checks may be carried out.
This post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974; the successful applicant will be expected to undertake an enhanced DBS disclosure check. Having a criminal record will not necessarily debar you from obtaining a position with the School.
Equal OpportunitiesHavering Schools aim to promote and ensure equality of opportunity and equal treatment for all. We are committed to equal opportunities in employment regardless of gender, marital status, race, colour, nationality (including citizenship), ethnic or national origins, disabilities, age, sexual orientation, responsibility for dependants, religious or political affiliation and trade union activities. All matters related to employment are decided on the basis of qualifications, merit and business need.
