Primary Teaching Assistant - Manchester

Premier Education is recruiting enthusiastic Primary Teaching Assistants for long-term roles in schools along Manchester's A6 corridor, including Ardwick, Longsight and Levenshulme.

These locations are ideal for commuters, with frequent bus services along Stockport Road, nearby rail connections and straightforward access from Manchester city centre, Stockport and surrounding South Manchester areas.

The roles are particularly suited to teaching assistants who enjoy delivering focused one-to-one and small-group interventions and helping primary-aged children make measurable progress.

About the schools

We work with welcoming primary schools that are committed to providing children with an inclusive, engaging and supportive education.

The schools support pupils across the primary age range, from Early Years through to Year 6. Staff work collaboratively to identify gaps in learning, build children's confidence and ensure that pupils receive the targeted support they need.

You may work with children who require additional help with:

Phonics and early reading

Reading fluency and comprehension

Writing, spelling and grammar

Early number skills and mathematics

Speech, language and communication

Concentration and classroom engagement

Confidence, independence and social skills

Special educational needs and disabilities

The role

As a Primary Teaching Assistant, you will work closely with the class teacher and wider support team to deliver targeted interventions and reinforce classroom learning.

Your responsibilities may include:

Delivering one-to-one and small-group interventions

Supporting pupils with phonics, reading, writing and mathematics

Using teacher-prepared plans and resources to deliver structured activities

Helping pupils revisit learning and overcome specific barriers

Supporting children with SEND or additional learning needs

Encouraging positive learning habits, confidence and independence

Monitoring pupils' participation, understanding and progress

Recording intervention outcomes and providing feedback to the class teacher

Supporting learning within the classroom when interventions are not taking place

Helping pupils manage routines, transitions and social situations

Creating a positive, inclusive and encouraging learning environment

Following safeguarding, behaviour and school policies

The precise year group and intervention focus will depend on the needs of each school. Opportunities may be available across EYFS, Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2.

Requirements

We would like to hear from candidates who:

Have experience working with primary-aged children

Have supported learning in a school or similar educational setting

Are confident delivering one-to-one and small-group activities

Have a good understanding of the primary curriculum

Can support children with literacy and numeracy

Are patient, encouraging and able to build positive relationships

Can follow intervention plans and provide clear feedback

Work well with teachers, SENCOs and other support staff

Are reliable and available full-time from 8.30am until 3.30pm

Can commit to a long-term, ongoing role

Experience delivering phonics, reading, mathematics or SEND interventions would be particularly beneficial.

A relevant Teaching Assistant or childcare qualification is desirable but not essential for applicants with suitable school-based experience.
