Summary

Teaching Assistant Level 2 Permanent Role Required as soon as possible30 hours per week Term Time only, plus 1 week (39 weeks) JM Grade 4 Point 4 £26,016 pro-rata to contract (actual Salary £18,147) We are seeking to appoint a dedicated member of staff to help us to build additional capacity in our strong and committed SEND team. The successful candidate will be organised, proactive, and passionate about supporting students and their families. At JMHS, it is our ambition that students with SEND achieve as well as other students and we believe that the best support for students occurs in the classroom. We achieve this through simple, effective and research driven teaching, employing evidence based adaptive and responsive teaching strategies. Our Curriculum, Assessment and Teaching (CAT) policy has been designed to support all students, but to particularly support disadvantaged students and students with SEND. Further information about our CAT policy can be found on the school website. JMHS was inspected by OFSTED in November 2022 who confirmed our good grading and whose comments included: • Pupils behave well. They are polite to their teachers and considerate of their peers. • Parents rate teachers’ high expectations because they push pupils to do more. Many say teachers go ‘above and beyond’ for their children. • Pupils can do unusual stuff at this exciting school. • School leaders have constructed a rich and engaging curriculum. In particular, inspectors made the following comments about the support for SEND students. “Leaders provide strong support for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). This is because specialist staff accurately assess and identify their needs. Teachers and teaching assistants are skilled in adapting tasks for these pupils so that they can keep up with their peers.” We welcome visits from prospective applicants. If you would like to visit the school or discuss the position further please email Hayley Newnes (Assistant Headteacher: SENDCo) We will shortlist based on the criteria in the person specification. Shortlisted candidates will be invited to a recruitment day which is likely to include a lesson observation and panel interview. We are committed to equal opportunities and will make reasonable adjustments where required for candidates attending interview, and for appointed candidates

JMHS is committed to the protection and safety of its pupils and therefore all appointed candidates will be subject to a Disclosure and Barring Service check at Enhanced Level and shortlisted candidates to an online search. Closing date: 9:00am, Monday 12 Oct Interview: w/c 19 Oct
