Description

Are you a Teaching Assistant who loves making a difference but wants flexibility around when and where you work?

We're currently working closely with a number of lovely primary and secondary schools across Colne and surrounding areas, and we're looking for reliable, caring Supply Teaching Assistants to support pupils on a day‑to‑day and short‑term basis.

This is a great opportunity if you enjoy variety, want to build relationships with local schools, or need work that fits around other commitments.

The role:
  • Supporting class teachers across EYFS, KS1, KS2 or Secondary
  • Working 1:1, in small groups, or as general classroom support
  • Helping to create a calm, positive and inclusive learning environment
  • Supporting pupils with additional needs where required
  • What we're looking for:
  • Experience working with children in a school setting (UK preferred)
  • A patient, nurturing and adaptable approach
  • Confidence stepping into different school environments
  • Level 2 or Level 3 TA qualification is desirable, but not essential
  • An enhanced DBS on the update service (or willing to apply)
  • Why supply?
  • Flexible work to fit around your lifestyle
  • A chance to gain experience in a variety of schools
  • Ongoing support from a consultant who genuinely gets education
  • Opportunities that can often lead to longer‑term or permanent roles
  • Whether you're an experienced TA, returning to education, or looking to build up more school experience, we'd love to have a conversation.

    If you're interested in supply work in the Colne area, get in touch today for a friendly, no‑pressure chat.
