Are you a high-achieving English Graduate looking to gain valuable classroom experience before pursuing a career in teaching?

A welcoming and ambitious mainstream primary school in Romford is seeking a dedicated English Graduate Teaching Assistant to join their team from September 2026. This full-time position is ideal for a recent graduate who is passionate about literacy, language development, and education.

The school is particularly interested in applications from graduates who have studied at a UK university, with Russell Group graduates strongly encouraged to apply.

The Role

As an English Graduate Teaching Assistant, you will support pupils across EYFS, Key Stage 1, and Key Stage 2, helping to raise attainment in reading, writing, phonics, and communication skills.

Responsibilities will include:

  • Delivering literacy interventions to individuals and small groups.
  • Supporting pupils with reading, writing, spelling, grammar, and comprehension.
  • Assisting with phonics sessions and early literacy development.
  • Supporting pupils who require additional academic support.
  • Helping children develop confidence in communication and language skills.
  • Assisting teachers in preparing engaging literacy resources and activities.
  • Monitoring pupil progress and providing feedback to teaching staff.
  • Supporting wider classroom learning across the curriculum.

This English Graduate Teaching Assistant role provides excellent experience for graduates considering careers in teaching, educational psychology, speech and language therapy, or wider education professions.

The School

This successful mainstream primary school in Romford has a strong reputation for academic achievement and pupil development. The school prides itself on creating a positive and inclusive learning environment where every child is encouraged to develop a love of reading and learning.

Staff are highly supportive, and graduates benefit from excellent training, mentoring, and professional development opportunities throughout the academic year.

  • A degree in English Literature, English Language, Creative Writing, Journalism, or a related subject from a UK university.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Excellent literacy skills and attention to detail.
  • A genuine passion for education and child development.
  • The ability to build positive relationships with pupils and staff.
  • A proactive, enthusiastic, and professional attitude.

Russell Group graduates are particularly encouraged to apply.

Previous experience working with children is desirable but not essential for the right candidate.

Why Apply?

  • Full-time role starting in September 2026.
  • Gain valuable classroom experience before teacher training.
  • Work alongside experienced teachers and senior leaders.
  • Develop literacy intervention and classroom support skills.
  • Excellent opportunity for aspiring teachers and education professionals.
