As a Community Teaching Assistant, you won't be confined to the classroom. You'll teach young people aged 16 to 25, whose learning difficulties or autism mean that mainstream education won't always meet their needs. Using a bespoke curriculum, you teach what is important for the individual: key life skills and appropriate lessons in literacy, numeracy and ICT.
You'll be based in the High Wycombe and Flackwell Heath area, working 39 weeks a year either full-time (Mon - Fri) or part-time (four days a week).
Every day is different but one thing is the same: the achievement you will feel as you watch young people blossom into adulthood.
