Teaching Assistant - Maidenbower Junior School

Maidenbower Junior School (MJS) is a large five-form entry junior school in Crawley. At MJS we welcome all pupils into a supportive and inclusive community aimed at fulfilling potential. Pupils tell us that they are part of a safe and nurturing team where our incredible facilities help create exciting opportunities. Shared high expectations, an inspiring curriculum and the need to have fun combine to create high outcomes and memorable moments. We listen closely to our pupils and our school values – respect, responsibility, resilience, tolerance, curiosity and growth – underpin school life, preparing pupils for the next part of their journey. We work hard together, we reflect together and we celebrate together.

We are looking for someone to join us on our learning journey where we strive to continue to improve and inspire. The role will largely be supporting pupils with special educational needs on a 1:1 or small group basis, although may also be whole class support. Working hours are term-time only and the role includes lunchtime supervision responsibilities.

Visits are strongly recommended so you are able to see our impressive school environment and delightful pupils.
