The Skylark Federation are looking for a Teaching Assistant and Lunchtime Assistant to join our welcoming and friendly village school at Kingston, Lewes. We have friendly and engaged families, happy children who are keen to do their best and a positive, supportive working environment.

The hours of work are from 8.30am until 12.00noon as a teaching assistant and then 12.00noon until 1.00pm as a lunchtime assistant. This position is for two days a week on a Monday and a Tuesday.

The successful candidate will support the teacher in the classroom to deliver teaching. They will work with children and assist with all learning activities.

You will be an extra pair of eyes in the classroom, picking up on any changes in behaviour and helping to ensure that every child has a safe and happy learning experience.
