About the Role

You will not need prior experience in all these tasks, as we provide 2-4 weeks of training at the beginning of the year to support you. Your day-to-day will involve planning and monitoring individual student progress, working with teachers on whole-class instruction, and creating engaging, safe, and healthy classroom spaces. You will collaborate with partners to collect and analyze student data, while also supporting whole-school initiatives to increase engagement with students and families through extended day programming, homework support, and leadership development.
