Great classrooms need great sidekicks. Could that be you?
We’re on the lookout for a caring, reliable Classroom Assistant to join a welcoming primary school in Gateshead. Whether it’s helping a whole class stay on track or offering gentle 1:1 support, your calm presence and positive energy will help pupils feel seen, supported and ready to learn.
This is the kind of school where TAs are part of the team—not just an extra pair of hands.
Your role will include:
-
Supporting children across the classroom, KS1 or KS2
-
Assisting the class teacher with learning tasks and behaviour routines
-
Providing tailored 1:1 or small group support when needed
-
Helping make each day run smoother, calmer, and more enjoyable
What we’re looking for:
-
Experience working with children (school, nursery, youth work or similar)
-
A calm, friendly approach and good communication skills
-
Flexibility and a genuine interest in supporting learning
-
Bonus if you’ve supported SEN pupils before—but not essential!
Why this role matters:
Because every teacher needs a trusted sidekick, and every pupil needs a steady, smiling face cheering them on. You don’t need to have teaching experience—just the right mindset and a willingness to muck in.
What Protocol Education offers:
-
Weekly pay through PAYE (no umbrella companies)
-
Access to FREE CPD, including behaviour and SEN training
-
Personalised support from your local Gateshead consultant
-
Smooth, fast-track registration
