Are you a recent graduate looking to gain hands-on experience in a primary school before progressing into teaching? Or are you keen to use your degree in a rewarding role where you can genuinely make a difference?

We are currently working with an ambitious and thriving primary school in Wimbledon who are looking to recruit an enthusiastic Graduate Teaching Assistant to join their team as soon as possible.

This is a fantastic opportunity to gain valuable classroom experience in a supportive and forward-thinking school environment. You will be working across KS1 and KS2, supporting pupils to raise attainment and build confidence in their learning.
