We are looking for a bright, caring and positive individual who enjoys working with children and who will relish the opportunity to help with the pastoral and academic development of our able pupils. The successful candidate will be part of a friendly team responsible for one Year 3 and two Year 4 classes, and will enjoy being involved in all aspects of busy school life. The Teaching Assistant will help teachers with lesson preparation and provide extra support for our pupils, both individually and within small groups. Outside of lessons, the Teaching Assistant will supervise pupils at break and lunch times and on educational visits. They will also fulfil a range of administrative tasks, such as creating displays and preparing inspiring, fun resources. Westminster Under School is a supportive and inspiring working environment, with exceptionally motivated pupils and teachers.
This is an exciting time to join the Under School, as we look forward to expansion to become a co-educational school for children aged four to 13 from September 2026. A key part of this role over the next year will therefore be to support the transition to welcoming girls, and help Junior Teachers positively contribute to the co-educational environment. The role may also subsequently involve supporting younger children and working across the 4-8 age range.
