Job Type: Contract
Reference: 311024274
Salary: £115 - £130/day
Job Published: 19 March 2026

You’re the calm in the classroom storm. The steady presence that helps lessons run smoothly and pupils feel seen, we have some local Primary Schools in Battersea that need someone exactly like you.

 

We’re looking for a qualified HLTA to join a vibrant, inclusive school that values reliable and consistent support staff. You’ll be stepping into a role where your skills are recognised, your ideas welcomed, and your impact felt daily.


What you’ll be doing:

 

  • Leading small group interventions and occasional whole-class cover
  • Supporting learning across EYFS, KS1 or KS2 (based on your strengths)
  • Collaborating closely with teaching staff to deliver engaging, inclusive lessons
  • Helping to create a calm, structured, and positive classroom environment
  • Supporting SEN pupils with care, confidence, and consistency

 


You’ll need:

 

  • HLTA qualification or relevant experience covering classes
  • Confidence in managing a classroom independently
  • A warm, proactive approach with bags of patience
  • Good understanding of the primary curriculum and SEN support

 

 


Why this role stands out:

- Flexibilty to suit your own work/life balance

- Supportive leadership that values everyone equally

- Ongoing CPD and access to Protocol’s free Thrive training
- Weekly PAYE pay, no umbrella companies

- A local consultant who actually listens to what you want


 

Bonus points if you’re Thrive trained—if not, we’ll help you get there with our free online course.

This is more than a TA role—it’s a chance to take the lead, make real impact, and be the person pupils remember years from now.
