Higher Level Teaching Assistant

Two Year Fixed Term

Scale 4 – 32 hours 10 minutes per week, 39 weeks per year

Prince of Wales School is a wonderful 2/3-form entry school, with spacious facilities, supportive staff and children eager to learn.  We are within easy reach of Central London and serve a rich, multi-ethnic community.  We are proud of the ethos and values shared by the staff, children, parents and Governors.  We are looking for an enthusiastic candidate to work as a Higher Level Teaching Assistant (HLTA).

Why join us

  • Work in a spacious school with supportive colleagues, committed governors and eager pupils.
  • Make a direct impact on inclusion, targeted intervention and pupil progress across the school.
  • Opportunity to work alongside teachers, SENCO and leaders to develop classroom practice and contribute to whole‑school priorities (reading fluency, oracy, and reducing barriers to enrichment for disadvantaged pupils).

Key responsibilities

  • Plan and deliver high‑quality small‑group and whole‑class teaching under the direction of class teachers and senior leaders, including cover for short‑term teacher absence where required.
  • Deliver targeted interventions (literacy, maths, speech and language, social communication and behaviour support) and record/monitor impact.
  • Lead learning across the class under teacher direction: prepare resources, adapt tasks and provide clear modelling so pupils make progress.
  • Support pupils with EAL and SEND to access the curriculum through careful scaffolding, differentiation and promotion of independence.
  • Contribute to maintaining records (intervention logs, behaviour/attendance notes), liaise with families when appropriate and attend relevant meetings.
  • Support pupils’ personal development: promote school values, routines and positive behaviour.
  • Participate in staff CPD, share effective practice and support colleagues in developing inclusive classroom approaches.

What we offer

  • Supportive leadership and a collaborative staff culture.
  • CPD linked to our SDP (inclusion, reading fluency, oracy and curriculum development).
  • A chance to make a measurable difference for pupils who are disadvantaged, have SEND or are new to English.

All applications must be literate and numerate to GCSE level (Grade C or above) or equivalent in English and Maths. The role would suit a graduate looking to gain experience before embarking on a teaching career.
