Homefield Church of England Primary and Nursery School is a wonderful school situated in the village of Bradwell. We are very proud of our school community, which is underpinned by strong Christian values that thrive on mutual respect and positive relationships. We are a fully inclusive school where diversity is celebrated and everyone is welcomed. We encourage applicants from all ethnic groups/cultures and we actively strive to ensure that our staff team represents the culturally diverse society that we live in.

The staff at Homefield are relentlessly focusing on teaching and learning; striving for excellence now and in the future. To be successful in gaining this post, we require someone who can become immersed in our school vision of ‘Curious Minds, Open Hearts and Joy of Learning’ where children are encouraged to have big ideas and be actively involved in all learning experiences.

We require a Teaching Assistant to work in our school. We are looking for somebody with good communication skills, a welcoming and friendly approach that demonstrates a high level of professionalism, while being able to relate well to both children and adults. This is an important post in the school and we want a reliable, well organised, adaptable and caring person. We would prefer to appoint a Teaching Assistant with a level 2 qualification, good standards of literacy, numeracy (C or equivalent at GCSE) and computing skills.

It is an exciting time for Homefield, as we prepare to move into our brand new school building. At the end of the academic year 2026/2027 we will be moving to a purpose built new school, expanding over time to have up to 420 pupils. This position is initially a fixed term contract for 1 academic year due to the transition into the new school building/area, but is likely to be extended as the school’s capacity grows.

We can offer you an enthusiastic friendly and committed team within a supportive school community, where we laugh every day! We are a happy, positive school with motivated children who enjoy their learning. Pupils are very well behaved and love to talk with visitors about our school.

If you are interested in this position and would like further information, please contact with Mrs Savage, Headteacher.
