Job Description
Primary Teaching Assistant
A Role That Goes Beyond the Classroom - A Meaningful Start in Education
You're looking for more than just a job - you want purpose, impact, and the chance to make a real difference. At Tradewind Recruitment, we understand that. That's why we partner with schools that value people, not just process.
Right now, schools across High Wycombe - both mainstream and specialist settings - are welcoming applications for Primary Teaching Assistants to begin in September 2025. If you're passionate about helping children thrive and are ready to be a consistent, caring presence in their lives, this could be your first big step in education.
This is not a role where you fade into the background.
It's about showing up daily, building meaningful relationships, and helping each child believe in their potential.
Your Role Will Involve:
- Collaborating with experienced teaching staff in primary or specialist schools across High Wycombe
- Providing tailored support to students with additional needs, including autism, ADHD, and SEMH
- Supporting learning and development in one-on-one and small group settings
- Promoting positive behaviour, emotional wellbeing, and confidence
- Developing hands-on experience in inclusive, student-focused teaching approaches
We're Looking for Someone Who:
- Holds a degree in any discipline and is motivated by impact, not just income
- Brings empathy, patience, and strong interpersonal skills
- Has experience working with children or young people - or feels naturally suited to it
- Is adaptable, reflective, and eager to learn
- Doesn't need formal teaching qualifications - just dedication and heart
In Return, You'll Receive:
- A full-time paid position where your work has meaning
- Complimentary access to high-quality CPD sessions to boost your skills
- Clear progression routes into teaching or related education roles
- Ongoing, one-on-one guidance from a consultant who understands local schools
- Genuine career-building opportunities - not vague promises
If you're local to High Wycombe and ready to begin a role that challenges and inspires you daily, we'd love to hear from you.
We don't believe in "just filling a vacancy."
We believe in matching the right person with the right role - because that's where the real impact begins.
Apply now and take the first step toward a career that counts.
