Classroom Support Assistant's required - Chandlers Ford / Eastleigh School's - from January

Academics are currently seeking a number of experienced and driven Classroom Support Assistant's to work in local Schools in Southampton and the surrounding areas.

We are recruiting for a number of Schools in Chandlers Ford, Eastleigh who are looking for Classroom Support Assistant's who are available to cover daily/short term supply and long term contracts. We also support schools with their permanent recruitment so if you are looking for a permanent Classroom Support Assistant position, we can support you with this.

The role of a Classroom Support Assistant involves enabling young people to develop and make progress by providing physical, emotional and nurturing support during their school day as well as supporting the Teacher in your classroom.

As a Classroom Support Assistant with Academics, you will ideally be available Monday to Friday between 8.30am - 3.30pm. Many of our client schools need consistency in the classroom, this is why full time is the ideal scenario.

This means you must have great communication skills in order to build relationships with both your students and the staff. The position involves working as part of a team to maintain a stable, happy and caring environment that makes the health, safety, care and welfare of young people a priority.

You will be expected to support the classroom and students as a whole as well as aid the teacher when necessary. In some cases you will be required to work on a 1:1 basis with children that are lower level learners or children that have challenging behaviours.

As a successful Classroom Support Assistant you will have strong behaviour management, be confident, motivated and well organised. Patience, commitment and empathy are essential, but above all, you'll be someone with a genuine desire to help others.

Although experience in a classroom or educational setting is advantageous, we will also consider applicants with other related experience.

If you are a Classroom Support Assistant seeking work in local Schools in Chandlers Ford, Eastleigh from January, please apply!

As part of the vetting checks to clear you for work, you must either have a Child Workforce related DBS which is registered to the DBS Update Service or be willing to submit one.
