What are you looking for from your next role?

Or a role where you can genuinely make a difference to a child's day?

Whatever you're looking for, there could be an opportunity waiting for you in Carmarthenshire.

We're working with primary schools across the area and are looking for caring, reliable and enthusiastic people to join us as Teaching Assistants.

Whether you're an experienced TA or you're bringing valuable experience from another setting, we'll help you explore roles that match your skills, availability and ambitions.

Find an opportunity that fits around you

No two candidates are looking for exactly the same thing.

That's why we'll start by getting to know you — what you've done, what you enjoy, when you're available and what you'd like from your next role.

Opportunities can include:

• Full-time Teaching Assistant positions
• Part-time and regular weekly work
• Short-term assignments
• Long-term placements
• 1:1 pupil support
• Small-group learning and intervention
• Classroom support
• Pastoral and behavioural support
• Primary schools across Carmarthenshire

Whether you're looking for flexibility or hoping to find a school where you can build a longer-term future, we'll help you understand what's available.

You might have more relevant experience than you realise

You don't need to have spent years working as a Teaching Assistant to bring something valuable into the classroom.

Perhaps you've worked in:

Childcare or nursery settings
Youth work
Sports and coaching
Mentoring
Residential or support work
Volunteering
Other roles supporting children or young people

These experiences can give you many of the qualities schools value — patience, resilience, empathy, communication and the ability to build positive relationships.

We're looking for people who are:

• Caring, patient and approachable
• Reliable and professional
• Confident working with children
• Positive and encouraging
• Able to build strong relationships with pupils
• Passionate about helping children develop
• Comfortable working as part of a wider school team
• Adaptable and willing to support pupils with different needs

Be the person who helps a pupil believe they can

A Teaching Assistant can make a huge difference.

Sometimes that's helping a pupil understand something they've been struggling with.

Sometimes it's giving them the confidence to put their hand up.

Sometimes it's helping them manage a difficult moment, build independence or simply feel that they're understood.

Depending on your role, you could be:

• Supporting teachers during lessons and activities
• Working 1:1 with individual pupils
• Supporting small groups with learning and interventions
• Encouraging pupils to participate and stay engaged
• Supporting positive behaviour and classroom routines
• Helping pupils develop confidence and independence
• Providing pastoral and practical support
• Adapting support to individual pupils' needs
• Contributing to a welcoming and inclusive classroom

Every school is different, and every pupil is different.

But the goal is the same: helping children feel supported, included and able to succeed.
