“The child grew and become strong in body, mind and spirit”
Luke 2:40
St Peter's is a very special place where we challenge all our children to be aspirational, supporting their hopes and dreams and guiding them as they search for their own pathways to success and fulfilment. We are a one form entry Church of England voluntary aided primary school, serving the parish of St. Peter’s Church and providing a Christian education for those who choose it. Founded in 1860, we have strong links with the Parish Church and the local community.
The Governors of St Peter’s C.E. Primary School are excited to welcome a dedicated, caring, and enthusiastic Learning Support Assistant to support a reception child who has significant medical and physical needs. This temporary post is linked to funding and will continue for as long as the child attends St Peters School.
In this role, you will collaborate with the teacher to enhance the learning and development of this pupil. You will promote independence, self-esteem, and social inclusion, supporting in accessing the Early Years curriculum, engaging in adaptive learning activities, and achieving milestones. Candidates should be prepared to assist with daily personal care and medical needs in accordance with school policies and care plans. Support may be required in a small group setting, within the whole class and often on a one-to-one basis.
We are looking for someone who:
- Has a passion for teaching and learning
- Builds strong relationships with pupils, parents, and colleagues
- Is committed to high standards and achieving the best outcomes for all
- Embraces creativity and innovation in the classroom
- Works well as part of a team and contributes positively to school life
