About the role

Teaching Assistant (term time only)

Salary Information: Scale 3 Pt 5-6 = TTO salary £21,419 to £21,758

“A wonderful, warm, nurturing place to work”

Bowden House School is a specialist SEMH provision for boys, offering both day and residential placements for up to 40 students.

Our students are taught in small classes, typically 4 to 6 pupils, with the support of an Assistant Teacher in every lesson. Many of our young people have experienced disrupted education, including significant periods out of school and multiple failed placements. Our "stage not age" approach allows students to re-engage with learning and achieve success at their own pace.

At Bowden House, you will be part of a close, committed, and highly supportive team. We pride ourselves not only on the quality of our teaching, but also on the exceptional care we offer to our students. Working here can be challenging at times, but it is also immensely rewarding, offering creativity, collaboration, and a strong sense of purpose.

We are looking for a resilient, compassionate, and flexible Assistant Teacher to support our students in both their academic and personal development. You will help to deliver engaging, purposeful lessons alongside teachers, and you will be a vital part of building trust and nurturing progress for our young people.

Previous experience of working with young people is helpful, but not essential — more important is a commitment to making a difference, a willingness to learn, and a curiosity about how young people grow and thrive. Full training will be provided, including enhanced safeguarding, attachment and trauma training, Team Teach, MIDAS, and first aid.

If you are someone who believes in the power of relationships, can offer patience and creativity, and are ready to join a wonderful community of staff and students, we would love to hear from you.

“Nobody cares how much you know until they know how much you care.”

Key Information:

  • Full-time, term-time only (plus training days)
  • Full training provided
  • Opportunities for progression
  • Strong teamwork and supportive environment
  • Flexible and resilient approach essential
  • Experience of working with young people desirable but not essential

Candidates must have been educated to at least GCSE standard or equivalent.

The school is committed to the Safeguarding and Protection of Children. We appoint staff in positions of trust and it is our duty under Safer Recruitment to ensure that they are fit to work with vulnerable young people. References and an enhanced DBS that are satisfactory to us, will be a condition of the appointment.  It is an offence to apply for this role if you have been barred from engaging in regulated activity relevant to children.

We shall ensure fairness and equal opportunity throughout our workforce and in service delivery. We welcome applications from suitably skilled candidates regardless of ethnicity, gender, disability, sexuality, religion or age.

Online searches may be carried out as part of due diligence checks for shortlisted candidates
