St Martins School and Horizons 6th Form is an 11-19 Special School in Derby, with a mixed student profile of children and young people with a range of learning difficulties and additional complex needs. St Martins shares a site with Noel-Baker Academy in Alvaston, whilst Horizons 6th Form is based in Derby city centre. We received our third consecutive 'Outstanding' OFSTED in June 2017 and we continue to aspire to the highest standards for students and our staff teams.
This is an exciting opportunity to join the Classroom Support team in our outstanding and innovative school which is a proud member of the Shaw Education Trust.
St Martins School are looking to recruit a Classroom Assistant to join our skilled, committed and innovative team. Applicants will support Teaching staff with the provision and resourcing of high quality learning as well as contribute to other areas of school life.
All candidates are required to provide a supporting statement on the formal application form which states clearly your reasons for applying, skills and experience for this position.
Our Special settings cater for children and young people with a wide range of Special Educational Needs from children with profound medical needs and life limiting conditions, those with severe, moderate and sensory needs through to young people with social emotional and mental health needs that require support and understanding to help them to navigate their world.
Whether you are a teacher, a teaching assistant, a healthcare professional or work in facilities, admin or operations, all of our Special Schools offer you the opportunity to work within an establishment that has a ‘family’ feel that puts the children, young people and their families at the heart of what they do.
All the pupils within our Special Schools have an individualised education and are educated in small classes and groups with enhanced support to ensure that all of their needs are met. There is nothing more rewarding than being part of a team that supports a child or young person with Special Educational Needs to reach their goals. You truly will make a difference to the life of a young person and their family.
Shaw Education Trust are a thriving mix of diverse and growing schools including Primary, Secondary and Special Schools all working together to improve the lives of young people in our communities. We are sponsored by Shaw Trust a charity organisation that focuses on transforming lives. We’re a growing group of dynamically awesome academies providing education to children of all ages and abilities. Staff across our team of schools are dedicated to ensuring that every child has the opportunity to be successful, whatever their starting point in life.
Our schools span from Birmingham to Bury, meaning that we can support students from all walks of life, no matter their background or socioeconomic status. In doing this, we are able to help ensure all children are able to access a high standard of education, with all being treated equally.
Unlike other MATs, we don’t enforce a curriculum for all our schools to follow. Instead, we support each individual school to offer a programme that enables our students to deepen their knowledge, develop their skills, sparks their imagination and fires their curiosity.

  • An excellent Local Government Pension Scheme (Support Staff) / Teachers Pension (Teaching Staff)
