Fully Funded Teaching Assistant Apprenticeship – Earn While You Learn

Middleton | Primary School Setting | 2 Positions Available

Are you looking to build a long-term career in education?

Have you gained some experience in a school and realised that supporting children is something you’re genuinely passionate about?

This is a unique opportunity to begin your journey towards becoming a qualified Teaching Assistant whilst earning a salary from day one.

A welcoming primary school in Middleton is looking for two enthusiastic and dedicated individuals to join their team as Teaching Assistant Apprentices. Unlike many education pathways that require unpaid placements or self-funded qualifications, this apprenticeship allows you to gain valuable classroom experience, receive professional training and achieve a recognised Teaching Assistant qualification worth over £7,000, all whilst getting paid.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

If you know education is the career for you, there are very few routes that offer as much value as this apprenticeship.

You’ll receive:

A fully funded Teaching Assistant qualification worth over £7,000

A salary whilst you train and develop your skills

Daily hands-on experience in a primary school

Ongoing support from experienced education professionals

Specialist experience supporting pupils with SEND

No university fees, no course costs and no unpaid placements

A clear pathway into a permanent Teaching Assistant role

A recognised qualification that can open doors throughout your education career

This is the perfect opportunity for someone who wants to learn, develop and build a stable future within education.

The Role

Working within a supportive primary school, you will play an important role in helping children reach their full potential.

You will:

• Support children on a 1:1 basis, particularly those with Special Educational Needs
• Assist pupils during lessons and intervention sessions
• Help create a positive, engaging and inclusive learning environment
• Support children’s academic, social and emotional development
• Build strong relationships with pupils, teachers and support staff
• Learn from experienced professionals whilst working towards your qualification

Every day will provide opportunities to develop your skills and make a genuine difference to children’s education.

To be considered, you must:

• Have a minimum of two weeks’ experience in a school setting through work experience, volunteering, placements or employment
• Have a genuine passion for working with children
• Be interested in supporting pupils with SEND
• Be motivated to learn and develop professionally
