The Joseph Whitaker School is a popular oversubscribed school of 1300 students with attainment levels above the national average at both GCSE and post 16. We were inspected in March 2019 and the school was again judged as being good. It is worth reading the Ofsted letter as this gives a true flavour of our school.

We are looking for a proactive and enthusiastic Teaching Assistant. The successful applicant will contribute to the inclusion work within school by helping to raise standards of achievement for students with SEND. The post will include supporting students with social, emotional and mental health difficulties across KS3 and KS4, both in class and on a 1-1 or small group basis within our Student Support Centre. 

Experience of working with school age students and a specialism in SEMH is desirable, but training will be given to the successful candidate.
