Horizon Teachers are currently working with a Primary School in Islington that are looking for a Teaching Assistant to work 1:1 with a child in their Year 1 class that requires extra support to help keep them engaged within lessons. The student is currently working at a lower level and has mild learning difficulties which can lead to challenging behaviours. The role is starting from after the Easter break until the end of the academic year, on a full time basis.
As a Teaching Assistant you will need to help manage their behaviour and use your initiative to help best support them. You will need to be resilient and be able to quickly create a rapport with the child to help support him. This will be a very rewarding role for the right person and will pay up to £500 per week.
