Seeking a Teaching Assistant in Blandford!

Job Title: Teaching Assistant
Location: Blandford
Salary: £14.24 - £16.12 per hour
Start date: September 2026
Contract type: Full Time (Monday to Friday, 8:30 - 3:30)

Are you passionate about education and dedicated to supporting students in their learning journey? Advantage Education is currently looking for a dynamic and enthusiastic Teaching Assistant to join a local specialist school in Blandford. This would be specifically working with their secondary aged pupils, across both KS3 and KS4.

The school is currently growing across Dorset, with two new sites in Lytchett Minster and Wimborne. It is desirable for staff to be able to drive, so they can cover at different sites if/when needed. The school is renowned for its internal progression, where ideally staff will progress into a Teacher Training or Pastoral based pathway, following gaining invaluable Teaching Assistant experience.

About the School:

This is a supportive behaviour-focused educational setting that uses a therapeutic approach to help students understand and improve their behaviour. The goal is to address underlying needs, rather than relying on punishment. It prioritises safeguarding, wellbeing, and emotional development, creating a safe and structured environment where students feel respected, understood, and able to rebuild confidence in learning. The school works closely with families and external professionals to provide tailored support, including for those with additional needs, and staff are trained in therapeutic thinking and mental health awareness to respond calmly and consistently. The overall aim is to develop positive relationships, resilience, personal growth, and responsibility, helping students re-engage with education and prepare for successful futures. Special Educational Needs and Disability strategies are meticulously planned and monitored to ensure optimal outcomes for all pupils, irrespective of SEND status.

About the Role:

As a Teaching Assistant, you will play a crucial role in supporting teachers and students across various subjects and age groups. From assisting in classroom activities to providing one-on-one support, your dedication will contribute to creating an engaging and enriching learning experience for all students. 

Responsibilities:

Support teachers in delivering lessons and implementing learning activities.
Provide individualised support to students with diverse learning needs.
Assist with classroom management and behaviour management strategies.
Help create a positive and inclusive learning environment.
Collaborate with teachers and other staff members to meet the educational needs of students.

Requirements:

Previous experience working with children or young people is preferred.
Driving is desirable so can cover at different sites if needed.
Ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team.
A patient and empathetic approach to supporting students.
Commitment to promoting a positive and inclusive learning environment.

If you are passionate about education and eager to work as a Secondary Teaching Assistant in Blandford, we would love to hear from you! Please submit your CV ASAP!

To work with Advantage Education as a Teaching Assistant, you should:

Have the right to work in the UK.
Have an up-to-date CV with two relevant references from within the last 2 years.
Have a DBS registered to the update service or be happy to apply for one with Advantage Education

Please be advised that this role requires strong knowledge and understanding of safeguarding and child protection and that successful applicants must satisfy all background safer recruitment checks including an enhanced DBS on the update service.

Pay: £14.24-£16.12 per hour

Work Location: In person
