Description

Ready to Take the Next Step?

You’ve built your classroom experience. You know how to engage pupils, support learning and keep a class focused.

Now you might be ready for a little more responsibility.

TeachWell is looking for confident and experienced Higher Level Teaching Assistants (HLTAs) to work within primary schools in Lowestoft and the surrounding area.

Whether you’re already working as an HLTA or you’re an experienced Teaching Assistant looking for opportunities to step up, we’d love to hear from you.

More Responsibility. More Variety.

  • Leading small-group interventions
  • Supporting pupils who need additional help
  • Working across different year groups
  • Supporting teachers with the delivery of the curriculum
  • Helping maintain a positive and engaging classroom environment

Some opportunities may be occasional cover, while others could offer regular days or longer-term work.

We’d Love to Hear From You If You:

  • Hold an HLTA qualification or have strong relevant classroom experience
  • Have experience working within a primary school
  • Are confident leading learning with groups and whole classes
  • Can quickly build positive relationships with pupils
  • Are comfortable adapting to different year groups and school environments
  • Are reliable, professional and confident working independently
  • Have high expectations for children’s learning and behaviour
