Teaching Assistant - Reception Class

⭐ Teaching Assistant - Reception Class
📍 Newport, Gwent
🕒 Monday to Friday 08:30 - 15:30
📅 September Start

We are excited to offer an opportunity for a passionate and caring Teaching Assistant to join a welcoming reception team in a large, vibrant primary school in Newport.

As our new Teaching Assistant, you will play a vital role in helping young children take their first steps into education. Most of the reception pupils will be experiencing a school environment for the very first time, so we are looking for someone who is warm, nurturing, and emotionally attuned to the needs of early learners.

💡 Key qualities we are looking for:

• A gentle and patient approach with young children
• Ability to build trusting relationships with pupils and families
• Strong communication and teamwork skills
• A calm and positive presence in the classroom
• Previous experience working with children is desirable but not essential

🎯 Your responsibilities will include:

• Supporting the class teacher with day-to-day routines and learning activities
• Creating a safe and supportive classroom environment
• Helping children to settle in and develop basic skills in literacy, numeracy, and social interaction
• Assisting with personal care routines where required
• Encouraging independence and curiosity through play and exploration

If you are a compassionate individual with a genuine passion for early years education, we would love to hear from you.
