‘This is a happy place’ (OFSTED May 2023)
Are you looking for a new challenge? Are you passionate about supporting children and young people with their development and learning? Are you keen to develop new skills? Come and join our fantastic Foreland Fields School team.
Our pupils and students have a wide range of needs, including difficulties with communication, learning, physical and sensory development as well as medical and care needs. All pupils and students have either severe or profound learning difficulties and many also have a diagnosis of autism. Classes are needs led and pupils and students follow personalised learning journeys along different curriculum pathways, depending on their individual needs. We have a number of Deaf/Hearing Impaired students across the school who are supported by a Teacher of the Deaf and a team of support staff with BSL qualifications.
Due to rising pupil numbers, we have vacancies for Teaching Assistants to join our fantastic team from 1st September 2026. There is the possibility of an earlier start date, for candidates who are available before September.
We are looking for team members who are driven to create a nurturing environment where our children and young people can thrive. We would be particularly interested in applicants who can demonstrate knowledge and understanding of early child development, particularly how children at the earliest stages of development learn through play and intensive interaction.
This is a physically demanding role, as teaching assistants are required to support pupils with sporting activities, outdoor learning, active play and manual handling for personal care and postural management.
We are looking for candidates, who can commit to the full Teaching Assistant hours which are from 8.30am until 3pm Monday to Friday, apart from Thursdays where the finish time is 2.45pm on alternate weeks and 4.45pm on other weeks to accommodate essential training. These posts are term time only.
Although most vacancies are based on this site, Teaching Assistants are appointed to the whole school and may be required to work with any age group or pathway, so that we can meet the complex needs of our pupils and students. This includes working within our satellite classes at Garlinge Primary School, Hartsdown Academy and East Kent College.
We provide all staff with a full week of induction training, which includes Manual Handling, Communication, Pool Evacuation, Behaviour and Safeguarding Training. We are committed to providing aspirational outcomes for all our students and we provide regular specialist training for all staff, throughout their careers at Foreland Fields School. Essential training for Teaching Assistants takes place on Thursdays after school and all staff are required to attend this as well as 5 INSET days per year.
Candidates are welcome to contact Sarah Thorp (Deputy Headteacher) during school hours by telephone (01843 863891) if they would like to learn more about this exciting opportunity.
