Intervention Assistant - Booster Sessions, Wales

The heads of core KS3 ? 4 subjects are looking to appoint two specialist support staff to work in numeracy and literacy interventions. The ideal candidates will be confident in both maths and English, however, those who possess talents in just one are highly encouraged to apply. The role is based in a comprehensive school in Rhoindda Cynon Taf. Under a new headship, the school went from requiring urgent attention in their 2016 Estyn report, to being now rated as a ?GOOD? school in their recent report. The most impressive changes have been made towards quality of teaching and behavioural ethos. Both have been largely driven by an SLT team focused on creating a consistent and innovative learning environment and often like to refer to their methods as ?thinking outside of the box!? A large percentage of schools come from low income families and qualify for free school meals. The sixth form has been largely developed and a record number or pupils are staying on to complete A-levels at the school. GCSE results have also vastly improved across core areas, and the school are wanting to see progression in this area again. You will be working in pupil interventions, supporting a qualified teacher in numeracy or literacy. A curriculum will be implemented and set for the pupils based on their additional learning needs, or specific strategies designed to encourage learning outside a mainstream classroom environment. Classes will generally consist of a small number of pupils or one to one work as the lessons will need to be tailored towards ability. Although some of the pupils will possess challenging behaviour, the role is designed for someone who wants to bring their subject specialism to the classroom and see a pupil improve.
