KS3 Teaching Assistant – Full Time – Bolton

Bolton
Immediate Start – July 2027
£106.80 - £110 per day
Full Time – 5 Days per Week

Are you a patient and encouraging Teaching Assistant who enjoys helping young people build confidence and stay engaged with their learning?

Premier Education is recruiting on behalf of a welcoming and high-achieving secondary school in Bolton for a Teaching Assistant to provide support to a neurodiverse pupil in KS3.

This is not a challenging behaviour role. The pupil is well behaved but benefits from having someone alongside them to provide reassurance, encouragement and gentle prompts to stay focused, complete their work and get the most from their lessons.

The school will also provide lunch every day for the successful candidate. 

The role:

• Supporting a KS3 pupil on a one-to-one basis

• Helping her remain focused and engaged during lessons

• Encouraging her to attempt and complete set work

• Providing prompts, reassurance and guidance where needed

• Supporting independence rather than completing work for her

• Liaising with teaching and SEND staff to provide consistent support

• Providing wider classroom support when appropriate

• Full time, Monday to Friday

• Ongoing role until July 2027
  
  
  

The ideal candidate will have:

• A Level 2 Teaching Assistant qualification or higher

• Experience supporting pupils with SEND or neurodiversity

• A calm, patient and encouraging approach

• The ability to build a positive relationship while maintaining appropriate boundaries

• Good spoken and written English

• Confidence supporting learning at KS3 level

• Secondary school experience is desirable

This would particularly suit someone who is warm, positive and motivating and understands how to encourage a young person without doing the work for them.

You'll be joining a supportive school with engaged pupils and experienced staff, with the opportunity to make a real difference to one pupil's confidence, independence and engagement with learning.

If you're looking for a rewarding, consistent Teaching Assistant role in Bolton, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply today with your CV for an immediate start.

Primary Teacher  – Wigan

Primary Teacher
Wigan & surrounding areas
Flexible, part-time & full-time opportunities

Love teaching, but not everything that comes with a permanent teaching post?

You don't have to leave the classroom altogether.

Premier Education is looking for experienced Primary Teachers across Wigan who still love working with children and teaching great lessons, but would like more flexibility and a better balance around work.

Perhaps you've stepped away from a permanent position after many years in the classroom. Maybe you've held additional responsibilities or leadership roles and now want to concentrate on the part of the job you actually enjoy – teaching.

Or perhaps you simply want the freedom to choose when and where you work.

We're looking for teachers with experience across EYFS, KS1 and/or KS2 for opportunities including:

• Day-to-day supply
• Regular work in the same local schools
• PPA and planned cover
• Part-time teaching
• Short-term assignments
• Longer-term roles for those who want them

We're particularly keen to hear from confident classroom practitioners who can walk into a school, quickly build relationships with pupils and provide a calm, purposeful learning environment.

Experience with areas such as phonics, early reading, SEND, behaviour management, assessment or subject leadership would be particularly valuable.

Who we're looking for

You'll need QTS and recent/relevant UK primary teaching experience, but we're not looking for one particular type of teacher.

You might be an experienced teacher who has recently left a permanent post, a former member of SLT wanting fewer responsibilities, a teacher returning after a career break, or simply someone ready for a change.

What matters is that you're a strong teacher who still has plenty to offer a school.

If you'd like to keep doing the job you trained for without committing to another permanent classroom position, I'd love to hear from you.

Apply today and Amy at Premier Education will contact you for an informal chat about the type of work you're looking for across Wigan.

• Helping a pupil regulate and engage with learning
