Opportunity for an exceptional candidate to be a teaching assistant shaping our pupils to be the best they can be. Ark Pioneer, a non-selective secondary school, delivers a standard of education matching the very best schools in the country. Our vision is that every pupil leaves Ark Pioneer with real options, be it embarking on the university course of their choice, apprenticeship or starting employment leading to their chosen career.

Across school life, we embed high aspirations and a growth mindset in all of our children. We believe that every single child who joins us has the potential to be knowledgeable, articulate and successful. It's important this resonates with all candidates.
Why will you love our school?
There are lots of reasons! We're lucky to be based in a brand-new building with top class facilities. We serve a wonderfully diverse community - we are non-denominational, mixed gender and two fifths of our pupils receive pupil premium funding. We're led by our values - Aim High, Have Integrity, Be Kind and Model Determination and our team truly unite behind our vision. Curriculum is incredibly important to us and we've planned backwards from university readiness to give our pupils the very best in every subject discipline. Our team say: 'All staff are incredibly supportive and positive and it is a great environment to work in'. Read more about our school here
