• Supervise during non‑class times, such as break or transition periods, ensuring student well‑being and that all pupils are accounted for.
• Help with marking or tracking basic student work under the teacher’s direction, maintain class records, provide feedback where appropriate and assist in preparing student progress reports.
• Aid inclusive education by supporting learners who may require additional help, collaborating with the teacher to adapt tasks to individual needs and support differentiated learning.
• Actively contribute to maintaining a positive classroom atmosphere that encourages curiosity, participation and growth. Be proactive in spotting opportunities to support the teacher and the class.

• Strong verbal and written communication skills in English; additional language skills are a plus given our diverse student body.
• A patient, adaptable and team‑oriented disposition, able to work both alongside the teacher and independently when required.
• A genuine interest in education, supporting student growth and collaborating in a classroom setting.
• Basic familiarity with classroom technologies, educational platforms or standard software tools (e.g., MS Office) is beneficial.
• Availability to work part‑time hours that fall within school operating times (to be agreed at interview), with flexibility to support school events or extra‑curricular sessions where needed.

What we offer:

• A flexible part‑time schedule, making this role ideal for someone studying, seeking career experience or working alongside other commitments.
