About this role
Full Time Term Time Only
We are looking to appoint a Learning Support Assistant on a Full-time basis to join our University Technical College (UTC). The role involves working with children with Autism and may consist of a variety of both 1:1 support and small group work.
The UTC opened in September 2014 in a new state of the art building. This is not only a relatively new school, but a new approach to educating 14–19-year olds; which is possibly the most exciting change in the education landscape in decades.
All students at UTC Heathrow specialise in either Engineering or Digital subjects; at 14 they will also study a broad and balanced curriculum and at Post 16 the curriculum becomes more specialist with A Levels in Physics, Mathematics and Computer Science. In addition, students can study a specialist BTEC Level 3 course in Engineering or IT/Computing and /or L3 Cyber Security. At capacity, we will be educating 500 students who will all have a passion for Engineering or Digital; it truly is an inspirational environment.
This role will provide you with:
Focused teaching - only teaching KS4 and KS5 classes.
Passionate students.
Opportunities for career development as the UTC grows and across Activate Learning Education Trust.
An opportunity to be at the forefront of STEM education.
If you believe that this is an environment where you can thrive, develop, and substantially contribute to an exciting future for UTC Heathrow, then you are encouraged to explore further by contacting HR, Gemma Gardiner, for a more detailed discussion, if required.
Completed application forms with an accompanying supporting letter should be emailed to HR@heathrow-utc.org
