**We are interested in the person, not always the qualification**
This is a great way to work within a schools setting,>If you feel you have a lot to give but not the opportunity to do so pleease read below.
Now Education is an Education based employment company that works with schools across Telford providing them with staff depending on their requirements.
We work with schools with SEN needs who are looking for Flexible staff to pick up part time or full time work around their current commitments to work across our schools as and when required.
We have an established reputation and excellent relationships with our schools and as a result can offer regular work for our staff as often or as little as they would like. While we have a number of full time opportunities we do require additional staff to join our flexi-team that pick and choose when they work around their current commitments. As the majority of our work is school based you will need to be available from 8:30AM - 3:30PM.
We are looking for candidates that possess the following qualities;
- Resilience
- Enthusiasm
- Empathy
Ideal candidates will either have experience working as a teaching assistant, or have transferrable skills from a similar role. For example - sports coach, care assistant, youth work, nanny/ au pair, nursery nurse, support worker.
This role would suit someone who needs a flexible work schedule to accommodate other existing commitments.
Successful candidates will be required to have a DBS check on the update service or be willing to obtain one, and will be required to provide references.Calling out for Teaching Assistants/ Classroom support, who are confident supporting pupils with challenging behaviours.
Do you have experience specifically within a Specialist Setting or Pupil Referral Unit?
We are seeking Teaching assistants to support our clients in Quinton- Birmingham from April- until the end of the school year.
Pupils within this setting have experienced mainstream but it has not quite worked out for them. Now they are able to work within smaller settings, with up to 8 pupils to help focus on the areas they have fallen behind. The role requires a strong character who holds the resilience to cater for those with the most complex and challenging behaviours.
We can offer Short and Long-term bookings with many schools also booking our TA's for emergency cover; we can work around your availability and be flexible to support your commitments and priorities. Working in SEN Schools via Now Education also opens many opportunities for permanent positions. Our clients benefit from the ability to take Now education TA's onto their permanent books after our TA's have completed 12 working weeks on a full-time, long-term supply contract; without the school incurring any recruitment fees. This in return provides consistent work and stable income for our Supply Teachers!

- Hold TA level 2/3 (or equivalent)
- Are Primary or Secondary Trained
