Innovate Services are looking for a Higher Level Teaching Assistant to work on a project in Lancashire. The successful candidate will support a new provision that works with a small group of children in care, to support their educational placement, academic learning and deliver outreach support. 

We are seeking a part-time Higher Level Teaching Assistant (0.6fte) to work as part of a multi-disciplinary team in this new and exciting initiative.

This post is not your typical or traditional Higher Level Teaching Assistant position, as your time will be wholly dedicated to a small group of between 4 to 8 children and young people who have had experience of accessing the care sector. The successful candidate will work between the residential home and the schools / educational settings that the children / young people attend (so working in a number of schools).

You will receive supervision  and guidance from experienced colleagues and the opportunity to meet in small groups for peer supervision and regular professional development. 

As a Higher Level Teaching Assistant with Innovate Services you will be expected to demonstrate flexibility, dedication, and a team ethos. You will promote the healthy emotional development and learning of children and young people, by working with and on behalf of individual and a small group of children, with teachers and other adults in schools, with families, social care professionals, other professionals and agencies.

This Higher Level Teaching Assistant vacancy is advertised by Jenifer Watts. If you'd like to be a part of this new project, please apply now.
