Secondary Teaching Assistant

Teaching Assistant (Secondary)

Stafford

£92.59 - £110 per day x 5 days per week

Full-time (Temp-to-Perm or Ongoing Supply)

About the Role

Are you a resilient, energetic, and passionate individual looking to make a tangible difference in young people’s lives?

We are seeking a dedicated Teaching Assistant to join a dynamic secondary school team in Stafford. This is a highly rewarding role within an environment where no two days are the same. You will be working closely with students who need extra support to engage with their education, helping them overcome barriers to learning, manage behavior, and reach their full potential.

Key Responsibilities:

• Provide tailored academic and emotional support to students within a secondary school setting.
• Establish firm, fair, and consistent boundaries to create a safe, focused, and productive learning environment.
• Work collaboratively with class teachers to implement positive behavior strategies and keep students engaged.
• Act as a positive role model, mentoring students who may display challenging behaviors or require extra pastoral care.

What We Are Looking For:

The successful candidate will be someone who doesn't phase easily and thrives in a fast-paced environment. We are looking for:

• Experience: Proven experience working with secondary-aged children (11–16) or within a similar youth-support environment.
• Behavior Management: Exceptional behavior management skills, with the ability to de-escalate situations calmly, confidently, and effectively.
• Character: A robust, resilient nature combined with a naturally nurturing and empathetic approach.
• Skills: Strong communication skills and the ability to build quick, trusting rapport with disengaged or vulnerable young people.

Why Join Revolve Collective? (The Benefits)

We believe our support staff are the backbone of the classroom. When you join us, you get more than just a shift:

• Competitive Weekly Pay: Excellent daily rates paid into your account every Friday.
• Wellbeing First (Industry Unique): We genuinely care about your mental health. We are proud to be the only agency offering dedicated Wellbeing Days and access to paid leave to ensure you stay refreshed, recharged, and at your best.
• Ultimate Flexibility & Career Security: While this starts as an agency position, we are looking for candidates for a temp-to-perm pathway so you can secure a permanent role at the school. However, if you prefer to stay flexible and remain on supply, we are more than happy to accommodate that! You use our system to set your availability—work 1 day a week or 5.
• Expert Coaching: Friendly, experienced consultants who provide tips on behavior management and CV building.
• Local Schools: We focus on Staffordshire, meaning shorter commutes and more time for yourself.

How to Apply: If you have the resilience, heart, and skills to help students thrive, we want to hear from you. Please send your CV to Revolve Collective today, making sure to highlight your experience with behavior management in secondary settings.
