Are you a Teaching Assistant, LSA or HLTA looking for flexible work in primary schools across Leeds?

TeacherActive is recruiting experienced and enthusiastic support staff to join our Leeds primary supply team, supporting schools across KS2 (Years 3 to 6).

This is agency-based supply work, so there is no single school attached to the role. On day-to-day supply, you could work across a number of different primary schools throughout Leeds, giving you the opportunity to build relationships with different settings and find schools that suit you.

We have opportunities ranging from day-to-day cover to longer-term placements, with successful supply placements regularly having the potential to develop into long-term and permanent opportunities directly with schools.

The Role

As a KS2 Teaching Assistant, you may be required to:

• Support pupils across Years 3 to 6

• Assist the class teacher with lessons and classroom activities

• Provide general classroom and small-group support

• Support pupils with SEND or additional learning needs where required

• Help maintain positive behaviour and engagement

• Support literacy, numeracy and intervention activities

• Adapt quickly to different primary school environments

We Welcome Applications From

• Teaching Assistants (TAs)

• Learning Support Assistants (LSAs)

• Higher Level Teaching Assistants (HLTAs)

• SEND Teaching Assistants

• Experienced Primary School Support Staff

Previous experience working with primary-aged children is desirable. A DBS on the Update Service is preferred, although support can be provided with obtaining one.

Whether you're looking for five days a week or flexible day-to-day work around other commitments, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply today to join our Leeds primary supply team and start working across local schools this September.
