We are looking to appoint enthusiastic, highly motivated Educational Teaching Assistants, who are passionate about supporting learning and building positive relationships with children with a range of needs, and who have the knowledge, skills, abilities and experience to do so.

You will work under the guidance of our SENDCo and teaching staff to implement and oversee agreed learning activities with individual and small groups of students, in or out of the classroom. This may involve assisting in the planning, preparation and delivery of the learning activities, as well as monitoring students, assessing, recording and reporting on achievement, progress and development, under the direction of the class teacher.

The successful candidates will need to be able to work collaboratively and flexibly and build good relationships with staff and key parents, demonstrating a respectful and caring attitude towards everyone in school.

Experience of working with children in a school environment and having the appropriate literacy and numeracy skills to support students are essential. Any experience of supporting students with emotional and social needs would be an advantage.

This role is ideal for those wanting to further their career in education and who have a desire to secure the best outcomes for our young people with SEND.

All SEND ETA staff have the opportunity to engage in CACHE qualifications. CACHE qualifications are awarded by the Council for Awards in Care, Health and Education for those working in the education sectors.

Qualifications include, for example, Improving the Support of Students with Dyslexia or Understanding Autism.

All CACHE courses lead to a nationally recognised Ofqual regulated qualification and are accredited on the Regulated Qualifications Framework.

All Saints is an 11-16 school, situated near the northern boundary of Kirklees. We are a Catholic school with students attending from diverse cultural backgrounds, which contributes to the distinctive

ethos. In November 2022, Ofsted judged All Saints “Good” in every category, and we received a “Good with Outstanding Catholic Life and Mission” judgement from our Catholic Schools Inspection in March 2025.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join our College making substantial progress under current leadership. In turn, we are looking for a candidate committed to playing a part in transforming the lives of our young people.
