About the role
Looking for a role where every day makes a difference?
Some superheroes wear capes. Others carry glue sticks, spare pencils, and know exactly how to turn a wobbly day into a winning one.
If you're patient, encouraging, and love seeing children grow in confidence, we've got a brilliant opportunity waiting for you.
We're working with a friendly primary school in Stowmarket that's looking for a Learning Support Assistant to join their welcoming team. It's the kind of school where smiles are genuine, teamwork is everything, and no two days are ever the same.

• Help pupils build confidence, independence, and a love of learning.
• Work alongside fantastic teachers to create engaging lessons and positive experiences.
• Celebrate the little wins, because they're often the biggest moments.
• Be a calm, encouraging presence when children need it most.
We'd love to hear from you if you:
• Have experience working with children, in schools or other settings.
• Are kind, reliable, and full of encouragement.
• Can think on your feet and adapt when the day takes an unexpected turn.
• Believe every child deserves the chance to shine.
• Have SEND experience, that's a bonus, but not essential.
Why you'll love this school
✔ Friendly, supportive staff who genuinely look out for one another.
✔ A welcoming atmosphere where everyone feels part of the team.
✔ Opportunities to learn new skills and develop your career.
✔ A chance to make a real difference in children's lives, every single day.

• Quick, hassle-free registration.
• Earn rewards through our Refer a Friend scheme.
