Tradewind are recruiting! Are you an outstanding Teaching Assistant looking for your next position following lock down? If so, then we want to hear from you!

Due to the Covid-19 Pandemic, Liverpool Special Needs Schools are pre-empting a high demand for additional Teaching Assistants support in September. Children will be working in smaller class bubbles and support will be required for those students who have missed 4 months of their education during this academic year. If you're looking for a full-time position to support pupils in their learning and to 'catch up' in core subjects they may have fell behind in then please contact Jemma Howson.

You will be responsible for making learning as accessible as possible for the students that you work with and therefore it is essential that you show empathy and patience, whilst ensuring they are as engaged as possible. A Teaching Assistant is a very rewarding role and one that is an integral part of school life.
