Are you an enthusiastic and experienced Higher Level Teaching Assistant looking to make a meaningful impact in a supportive and welcoming school community? We are seeking two committed HLTA’s to join our dedicated team and contribute to the continued success of our pupils.

As a part-time HLTA, you will:

  • Support teaching and learning across a range of subjects and age groups
  • Deliver planned lessons and interventions under the direction of teaching staff
  • Lead small group and 1:1 support sessions
  • Assist in planning and assessing pupil progress
  • Work collaboratively with a dedicated and friendly staff team

Moorhill Primary School has a welcoming and highly dedicated team, committed to working in partnership with parents and the school community. We want children to enjoy and excel in their learning and achieve their potential in all areas of school life. Academic achievement is important, as is achievement in music, sport and the arts.

Shaw Education Trust are a thriving mix of diverse and growing schools including Primary, Secondary and Special Schools all working together to improve the lives of young people in our communities. We are sponsored by Shaw Trust a charity organisation that focuses on transforming lives. We’re a growing group of dynamically awesome academies providing education to children of all ages and abilities. Staff across our team of schools are dedicated to ensuring that every child has the opportunity to be successful, whatever their starting point in life.

We believe that everyone has the potential to be extraordinary! 

To this end, our growing number of Primary schools within the trust tirelessly pursue excellence through research-based collaboration and innovation.  Our developing, Trust-wide, 3D Primary curriculum and pioneering Digital Strategy is designed to create inspirational, energetic and immersive learning experiences.  These enable every child to flourish within a caring, stimulating and purposeful atmosphere; fully prepared for their next stage of life and learning.

We know that at primary school, the quality of teaching affects both children’s social behaviour and intellectual development. This age and stage of learning has a more powerful impact on children’s academic progress than any other educational sector.  Home too has a vital part to play! - Recognised through extensive research, it is the importance of early experiences and the powerful combination of home, pre-school and primary school partnerships that set the foundations enabling our amazing children and pupils to succeed.

Unlike other MATs, we don’t enforce a curriculum for all our schools to follow. Instead, we support each individual school to offer a programme that enables our students to deepen their knowledge, develop their skills, sparks their imagination and fires their curiosity.

Our schools span from Birmingham to Bury, meaning that we can support students from all walks of life, no matter their background or socioeconomic status. In doing this, we can help ensure all children are able to access a high standard of education, with all being treated equally.
