NJC7-11 (£25,584-£27,269) per annum paid pro rata
32.5 hours per week, 38 weeks per year + training days (maximum of 5 per year)

We are seeking to appoint a Teaching Assistant to work with our established student support team to provide a broad range of support services to our students both inside and outside of the classroom. Some of the work will be dealing with complex and sometimes potentially upsetting safeguarding concerns so confidentiality is of the utmost importance. Experience of working with neuro-diverse young people or supporting mental wellbeing would be particularly welcome. This role is to start on 2 June 2025, but for the right candidate this could be 1 September 2025.

We have 800 students on roll, being boys only 11-16 and co-educational in the Sixth Form. The school has long been synonymous with excellence and the school’s reputation for providing a first rate all-round education for local students has been strengthened even further over recent years. The friendly, cheerful atmosphere of the school helps our students enjoy learning and, as they grow into young men and women, we enable them to take increasing responsibility for themselves and others around them. We became an Academy in August 2011, formed a Multi-Academy Trust (MAT) in September 2015 and were joined shortly afterwards in the MAT by Kesteven and Sleaford High School, the local girls’ grammar school.

To the right candidate, the post will be an opportunity to really make a difference and be a vital part of the pastoral team.

We hope that having read the information and looked at the information on the website, you will decide that Carre’s Grammar School is right for you and that you will make an application. To do so, please submit the application form and a covering letter of no more than 2 sides of A4 in which you should cover:

• Skills and knowledge that you would bring to this role;
• Why this particular post would suit you.

We will be looking for evidence which demonstrates how you meet the criteria in the person specification, so you must include sufficient evidence and examples to show that you meet the requirements.

If you would like further information about the post, an informal discussion or a visit, please contact Jacqueline Millband (SENCO).

Completed applications should be e-mailed to Mrs J Body and be in school no later than midday on Monday 28 April. Interviews will be held soon after the closing date, but we reserve the right to interview before that date. If you have not heard from us a week after the closing date, please presume that you have been unsuccessful.

As part of the Robert Carre Trust we are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff to share this commitment and to undergo enhanced DBS checks.
