Interventions Teaching Assistant

Description:

A primary school in the CF3 area is looking for an enthusiastic Intervention Teaching Assistant to work with pupils across Year 2 to Year 6. This is a varied role where you will deliver targeted interventions, support pupils in small groups, and help children develop both academically and emotionally.

The successful candidate will work with children who require additional academic support, helping to develop their confidence and understanding across the curriculum.

Equally, experienced Teaching Assistants seeking a more specialist intervention role are encouraged to apply.

Key responsibilities:

Deliver targeted intervention sessions across Years 2-6.
Support pupils with literacy, numeracy, and wider curriculum objectives.
Adapt learning activities to meet individual needs and learning styles.
Deliver teacher-planned activities and support pupils to achieve their learning goals.
Design and lead imaginative, engaging sessions that help bring learning to life.
Monitor pupil progress and provide feedback to teaching staff.
Build strong relationships that promote confidence, engagement, and independence.
We're looking for someone who is:

Proactive, organised, and able to work independently.
Confident supporting children across different age groups.
Creative in their approach to learning and intervention delivery.
Passionate about helping children overcome barriers to learning.
Keen to make a measurable impact on pupil outcomes.
The school offers: ✅ A supportive and welcoming staff team
✅ Excellent resources and intervention facilities
✅ Opportunities to develop your educational experience and skillset
✅ Convenient transport links and on-site parking
