32.5 hours per week, term time plus 5 training days
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a fluent Arabic speaker to join us in the role of Bilingual Support Assistant, working alongside our EAL (English as an Additional Language) Co-ordinator to support individual students and small groups of students to learn and integrate.
To be successful, you will possess a high level of English oral and written communication skills and excellent interpersonal skills, to gain the trust and respect of not only our students, but of their parents/carers and the local community. Previous experience working with secondary school age children would be desirable.
In return we offer the opportunity to work in a large, supportive team in an innovative school committed to the development of all our students and staff.
Kenton School is at the cutting edge of modern education. With around 2000 students, we are the largest school in the North East. However despite our size we pride ourselves on retaining a family atmosphere and in ensuring that we cater for the needs of all our students, recognising their special gifts or talents.
Kenton is a school of which its community is rightly proud; we were rated ‘good’ at our 2012 Ofsted, the school is a National Support School; and we have made a significant impact in raising attainment.
