We are looking for confident, imaginative and enthusiastic graduates with a degree in English (or a related subject) looking for their first job out of university. This role provides a complementary service to teachers and other staff. This is a great opportunity to motivate students and be responsible for improving their schooling experience.
The Role
The role involves working with a wide range of teachers and students at all ability levels, addressing the needs of students who require intervention and assistance in overcoming barriers to learning in order to achieve their full potential, supporting classroom teachers and delivering targeted small group sessions.

It is a great opportunity to play a crucial role in the day to day life of the school within the classroom and to gain exposure to the school environment.
The Winston Churchill School is made up of many enthusiastic, innovative and very knowledgeable teachers who will be able to provide guidance and support to this role.
