Stradbroke High School are seeking a Teaching Assistant (TA) to support a growing number of students with additional needs.
You will be at the heart of the classroom, helping students engage confidently with their learning, while also delivering targeted small‑group and one to one intervention such as ELSA that unlock progress.
