Infant and Junior Teaching Assistant

Bristol Grammar School is seeking a part-time Infant and Junior Teaching Assistant from September 2026.

Teaching assistants are integral members of the Infant and Junior Staff team and play a full part in the life of the School. The primary duties of a TA are to support the learning of children in the classroom. TAs also play a key role in the welfare of the children. Infant TAs will be required to work closely with a particular class. Establishing a detailed knowledge of each child as a unique individual and an effective working partnership with the class teacher is the key to success.

The successful candidate will be supporting in Year 3 or Year 4 but should expect to provide cover for teaching assistants in the Infant School, as requested.

The ideal candidate will have experience of working with primary aged children, and have strong interpersonal, communication, literacy and numeracy skills.

Benefits of working with us include access to free lunch, regular sports and social events, a cash health plan, pension and more.

BGS is a large and thriving school with approximately 1,350 pupils aged between 4 to 18. We value our warm, vibrant and positive learning community, a place where pupils become accountable for themselves, responsible for others and empowered to have a voice and a role in the many activities and endeavours that make our School such a unique and exciting place.
