We're working with a range of secondary schools and alternative provisions across Cornwall that are looking for subject-savvy Teaching Assistants to support pupils in the classroom - particularly in English, Maths, Science, PE, Computing, DT, and Humanities.
This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who loves their subject and wants to inspire young people without taking on the full responsibilities of a teacher.

Helping pupils engage with subject content and build confidence
Supporting behaviour, focus, and learning across the school day
Acting as a role model and consistent presence for students who may need additional support
We're looking for:
Subject knowledge in one or more areas (ideally to A-Level or degree level)
Some experience working with children or young people (formal or informal)
A proactive, calm and adaptable approach
Strong communication and the confidence to support learning in a busy classroom
What you'll need:
An enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or willingness to apply)
Two references from the last two years
Right to work in the UK
What you'll get:
Flexible, rewarding work that makes use of your subject skills
Weekly pay and competitive daily rates
Ongoing training and support to develop your skills further
The chance to explore long-term or permanent school-based careers
If you're passionate about your subject and want to make a real difference in schools across Cornwall, get in touch - let's find the right fit for you.
