An ARB is an Area or Additional Resource Base for children with a range of individual needs as detailed in their Education, Health and Care Plans. No day is ever the same in Poppy Class, we all learn something new with and from one another. We have a superb team of experienced staff and equally amazing pupils and together we enjoy a wide range of learning experiences.
Although the ARB is based within the Junior school, our pupils range from Year 2 to Year 6. All have a wide range of complex additional needs including autism, speech language and communication needs (including being non-verbal), general developmental delays and physical and medical needs including epilepsy and being tube fed. Intimate care is also required by a number of our pupils.
We welcome applications from those who are pro-active and flexible in their working practice as well as those able to ‘think-on-their-feet’ in what are often very challenging circumstances.
We are seeking to appoint three Teaching Assistants. Two positions are for 26 hours per week, and one position is for 32.5 hours per week. The roles are term time only, plus two INSET days, and are offered on a fixed-term basis until 31 August 2027.
The proposed interview date is 24th August 2026.
Completed application forms can be emailed to jobs@aspireacademytrust.org or returned via post to:
Aspire Academy Trust, Unit 20, St Austell Business Park, St Austell, Cornwall, PL25 4FD
