Every school day brings new challenges, new achievements, and new opportunities to make a difference.
We're working with a number of welcoming and inclusive primary schools across BS15 that are looking for enthusiastic and compassionate Classroom Support Assistants to help pupils thrive both academically and emotionally.
Many of the children attending these schools speak English as an Additional Language (EAL), so additional language skills are always valued. However, the most important qualities are patience, positivity, and the ability to build strong relationships with children from a range of backgrounds.
Whether you're already working in education or looking to transfer your skills from childcare, youth work, coaching, tutoring, or care settings, this could be the perfect next step.
Your Role
As a Classroom Support Assistant, you will:
- Support pupils across EYFS, KS1, or KS2 within the classroom
- Help children develop confidence, independence, and positive learning habits
- Work alongside teachers to deliver engaging learning activities
- Support pupils with SEND, SEMH needs, ADHD, and additional learning needs
- Encourage positive behaviour and emotional wellbeing
- Adapt your approach to meet the needs of individual learners
- Create a safe, inclusive, and supportive learning environment
We'd Love to Hear From You If You Are:
- Passionate about helping children succeed
- Calm, patient, and resilient
- Confident building positive relationships with pupils and staff
- Experienced in education, childcare, youth work, tutoring, coaching, or care settings
- Flexible and adaptable in a busy school environment
- Committed to helping every child feel valued and included
🌍 Additional languages are welcomed and can be particularly beneficial when supporting pupils with EAL, though this is not essential.
