Aspiring Teaching Assistants – Start Your Career in Education!
Location: Watford & Hertfordshire
Contract: Full-Time, Part-Time, Day-to-Day, Short-Term & Long-Term
Are you passionate about supporting children and young people and interested in building a rewarding career in education?
Supply Desk is recruiting enthusiastic and dedicated Aspiring Teaching Assistants to work within our network of partner schools across Watford and the wider Hertfordshire area.
We work with a variety of Primary, Secondary and Special Educational Needs (SEND) schools, offering opportunities for individuals at different stages of their careers. Whether you're a recent graduate, aspiring teacher, career changer or already have experience working with children, we would love to hear from you.
Why Work with Supply Desk?
At Supply Desk, we understand that finding the right school is important. Our dedicated consultants will take the time to understand your experience, availability, preferred location and career goals before matching you with suitable opportunities.
We offer:
Flexible Opportunities: Full-time, part-time, day-to-day, short-term and long-term positions are available across Watford and Hertfordshire.
Varied School Experience: Gain valuable experience within Primary, Secondary and specialist SEND settings.
Career Development: Build the skills and experience needed to progress within education, whether your goal is to become an experienced Teaching Assistant, SEND specialist or qualified teacher.
Dedicated Consultant Support: Receive ongoing guidance and support throughout the registration process and during your placements.
Competitive Pay: Rates of pay are based on your experience and the requirements of each placement.
CPD Learning Hub: Receive exclusive 24/7 access to professional development and training covering areas such as safeguarding, behaviour management, SEND and pupil wellbeing.
What Will You Do as a Teaching Assistant?
As a Teaching Assistant, you will work closely with teachers and other school staff to create a positive, supportive and inclusive learning environment.
Your responsibilities may include:
Supporting teachers with the delivery of engaging lessons.
Providing 1:1 and small-group support to pupils.
Helping pupils understand classroom activities and learning tasks.
Supporting children with SEND and additional learning needs.
Encouraging pupils to become confident, independent and engaged learners.
Supporting positive behaviour and classroom management.
Helping pupils with their academic, social and emotional development.
Building positive professional relationships with pupils and staff.
Assisting teachers with classroom preparation and organisation.
Following safeguarding procedures and school policies.
Some of our partner schools require Teaching Assistants to provide additional support to pupils with needs including autism (ASC), ADHD, SEMH, learning difficulties and communication needs. Previous SEND experience is valuable, but it is not essential for every opportunity.
Who Are We Looking For?
We would love to hear from candidates who:
Have a genuine passion for working with children and young people.
Are interested in developing a career within education.
Have strong communication and interpersonal skills.
Are patient, reliable, enthusiastic and adaptable.
Can build positive relationships with pupils and colleagues.
Are willing to learn and develop their skills.
Are comfortable working as part of a wider school team.
Have a positive approach to supporting pupils with different abilities and needs.
Understand the importance of safeguarding and professional boundaries.
Previous experience working with children is desirable but not always essential. Relevant experience could come from schools, nurseries, tutoring, youth work, sports coaching, mentoring, care, SEND support, volunteering or other child-focused environments.
