The school are looking for someone with an adaptable and flexible approach who has a relevant HLTA or Level 4 qualification, this role would also be suitable for an applicant with qualified teacher status. Previous experience in every year group is not necessary but a HLTA with experience covering lessons at Key Stage 2 would be desirable.

The school uses mainly Jolly Phonics in it's teaching of phonics across school so experience of using this would also be beneficial.

The successful candidate should be prepared to abide by all aspects of the schools risk assessment including any social distancing measures.
