About This Role
Work where it matters most, achieve what matters more
We are looking to appoint an Apprentice Teaching Assistant to start in September.
During your four terms in post, you will complete a Level 3 in Teaching and Supporting in Learning through on-the-job experience; additional remote training and Assignments. You will be supported in your qualification by staff in school as well as externally by the course provider.
This is a unique and rewarding opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of pupils with special educational needs, supporting both their academic achievement and their wider personal development within a supportive and inclusive school community.
About The Academy
We are a truly unique, small, rural 11-16 academy in the beautiful setting of North-West Worcestershire. Our pupils are happy, well behaved and proud of their school. The academy has a strong vein of moral purpose where the child is at the heart of all we do. We invest in our pupils and our staff to ensure all are supported to be the best they can be.
Our academy is a popular choice for children with special and additional learning needs. Numbers of pupils on roll with an EHCP or in receipt of SEN support are above local and national averages. The SEN team consists of our SENCO who leads a committed and dedicated growing support team including TAs, Assistant SENCOs and two apprentices. This team contributes significantly to the provision for all children but for those with special and additional needs, working alongside teachers and pastoral support to ensure the very best care and provision for some of our most vulnerable children.
