Salary: £12,259.06 – £12,307.18 per annum (pro rata of £24,714 – £24,811 FTE)

Contract Type: 30 hours per week, 34 weeks per year, permanent.

Location: Paignton, Devon

Scope and responsibilities:

Do you believe that every learner deserves the opportunity to succeed?
Are you passionate about helping students build confidence in maths and achieve goals they never thought possible?

If so, we’d love to hear from you!

We are looking for a Learning Support Assistant (Maths) to join our supportive and dedicated team, helping High Needs Students access and thrive within the GCSE and Functional Skills Maths curriculum.

What’s the role all about?

This is far more than a classroom support position. You'll play a vital role in helping students overcome barriers to learning, build independence, and achieve meaningful outcomes that will shape their futures.

Working closely with teaching staff and support teams, you will:

Support High Needs Students during maths lessons and learning activities
Help students engage with GCSE and Functional Skills Maths content
Encourage confidence, independence, and resilience in learning
Assist in delivering personalised support identified within Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs)
Monitor progress and celebrate achievements, big and small
Contribute to an inclusive environment where every learner feels valued and supported

Why does this role matter?

Government and Ofsted reforms have highlighted the importance of providing specialist support in maths for High Needs Students. As a Learning Support Assistant, you'll be at the heart of this provision, helping learners access education, make progress, achieve qualifications, and work towards the outcomes set out in their EHCPs.

Quite simply, your support could change a student's future.

Why join us?

You'll become part of a team that is committed to:

Aspiration – helping every learner achieve their goals
Inclusion – creating opportunities for all students to succeed
Respect – valuing every individual and celebrating difference

Ready to inspire confidence, unlock potential, and help students achieve more than they ever thought possible?

Apply today and become the difference that helps every learner count their success.

Every day brings new challenges, new successes, and the chance to make a genuine difference in a young person's life.

Our staff are integral to maintaining our passion and high-performance levels, and we reward our staff for this. Our benefits are designed to encourage a healthy work-life balance, and include:

25 days annual leave (pro-rata of fractional) including the option to purchase additional holiday days;
1 additional day’s holiday for your birthday (does not have to be used on your birthday);
1 additional day’s holiday for every 5 years served;
Christmas Closure of up to 2 weeks in addition to annual leave entitlement;
Access to a wealth of training, apprenticeships and funded higher education opportunities as well as dedicated training days;
Local Government Pension Scheme Employer pension contributions of 18%;
Subsidised fitness suite facility, onsite hair and beauty salon, access to a wide range of catering facilities, outdoor gym and free eyesight tests;
Major supermarket and high street employee discount schemes;
Life Assurance (if member of pension scheme);
On Site Nursery (Mama Bears);
Employee Assistance Programmes;
Access to Blue Light Card membership;
Discounted travel schemes.
