The Federation of St Joseph’s Infant and Junior schools requires a committed, conscientious and exceptional individual to support teaching assistant capacity, throughout the schools.
In 2019, St Joseph’s Catholic Infant and Junior Schools were federated, to form one community. The federated schools were the only school in Gateshead LA to have been selected as part of the DfE 2022 Rebuild Programme. Consequently, we hope to have a new school site within the next three years, which seeks to bring together the two school communities, to form one family.
We pride ourselves on the warm, family atmosphere we provide for our children. The uniqueness of our small community means that every member of staff knows every child well and this enables us to develop very strong relationships with all of our families. The senior leadership team are unashamedly ambitious for the schools.
We are proud to be part of the Bishop Wilkinson Catholic Education Trust, a family of secondary, middle, primary and first schools in Durham, Gateshead, Northumberland and Sunderland. Bishop Wilkinson is the largest Catholic education trust in the North East of England, which includes 48 schools and this is an exciting time to join our supportive team.

- Previous experience of working as a teaching assistant
- Experience of working across the key stages
- Experience of whole class supervision
- Experience of planning and delivering age-appropriate activities
- A good understanding of children’s learning
- Sound practical, interpersonal, and organisational skills
