A Varied Teaching Assistant Role with Opportunities to Make a Difference

SANZA Teaching Agency is working with a welcoming primary school in Hackney seeking a dedicated and adaptable Year 4 Teaching Assistant to join their team from November.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys variety and wants to make a meaningful difference in Key Stage 2. The role combines targeted small-group intervention with general classroom support, allowing you to build strong relationships with pupils while contributing to progress across the wider class.

You will work alongside an experienced Teaching Assistant to deliver an alternative learning programme for a small group of four children, before supporting the Year 4 teacher with day-to-day classroom learning.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Co-deliver a tailored alternative learning programme for a small group of four pupils, helping them stay engaged and work towards individual targets.

  • Provide general classroom support, assisting with lessons, learning resources and behaviour management.

  • Promote inclusion, confidence and positive engagement both within the classroom and during targeted sessions.

  • Work collaboratively with the class teacher and other support staff to meet pupils' individual needs.

  • Monitor progress and share feedback on pupils' achievements and areas for development.

What We're Looking For

  • Previous experience supporting primary-aged children, ideally within Key Stage 2.

  • A patient, proactive and nurturing approach to supporting pupils with different learning needs.

  • Strong teamwork skills and the ability to collaborate with another Teaching Assistant.

  • Flexibility to move between small-group interventions and whole-class support.

  • A genuine commitment to helping children develop academically, socially and emotionally.

Why Apply?

  • Competitive PAYE pay: £100 per day, increasing to £124 per day from week 13 under AWR.

  • Long-term opportunity: Full-time work from 2 November 2026 until July 2027.

  • Valuable experience: Develop your skills in both mainstream classroom support and targeted interventions.

  • Free professional development: Access accredited CPD courses to strengthen your classroom practice.

  • Dedicated support: Work with an experienced consultant at SANZA Teaching Agency throughout your placement.
