We are seeking an enthusiastic, motivated and dedicated Teaching Assistant to join the Loxwood team. This is an exciting opportunity to work within our small, rural village primary school, where children’s wellbeing and individual needs are at the heart of everything we do. The role is varied and will include a balance of whole-class support alongside targeted work with pupils who require additional help to access learning, which may include 1:1 SEND support at times. We are looking for someone who is flexible, self-motivated and able to take initiative, with a nurturing approach that reflects our inclusive ethos and commitment to helping every child achieve their potential.
Loxwood Primary School is a friendly, busy community, and the successful candidate will become part of a wonderful team of staff, governors, pupils and volunteers. Teaching Assistants work closely with the Headteacher and SENDCO, contributing to both classroom practice and the wider life of the school, including daily lunch duties. Strong interpersonal skills, reliability and a positive team spirit are essential, alongside the ability to motivate children and respond sensitively to individual needs.
